    Lamentations 5
    •   Remember, O LORD, what is come upon us: consider, and behold our reproach.
    •   Our inheritance is turned to strangers, our houses to aliens.
    •   We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers [are] as widows.
    •   We have drank our water for money; our wood is sold to us.
    •   Our necks [are] under persecution: we labor, [and] have no rest.
    •   We have given the hand [to] the Egyptians, [and to] the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.
    •   Our fathers have sinned, [and are] not; and we have borne their iniquities.
    •   Servants have ruled over us: [there is] none that doth deliver [us] out of their hand.
    •   We procured our bread with [the peril of] our lives, because of the sword of the wilderness.
    • 10   Our skin was black like an oven because of the terrible famine.
    • 11   They ravished the women in Zion, [and] the maids in the cities of Judah.
    • 12   Princes were hanged by their hand: the faces of elders were not honored.
    • 13   They took the young men to grind, and the children fell under the wood.
    • 14   The elders have ceased from the gate, the young men from their music.
    • 15   The joy of our heart hath ceased; our dance is turned into mourning.
    • 16   The crown is fallen [from] our head: woe to us, that we have sinned!
    • 17   For this our heart is faint; for these [things] our eyes are dim.
    • 18   Because of the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it.
    • 19   Thou, O LORD, remainest for ever; thy throne from generation to generation.
    • 20   Why dost thou forget us for ever, [and] forsake us so long time?
    • 21   Turn thou us to thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old.
    • 22   But thou hast utterly rejected us; thou art very wroth against us.

    Webster Bible Electronic Format.
    PUBLIC DOMAIN

    February 1992

    Beginning in July of 1991 the task of placing the Webster Bible text in electronic format began. The original purpose was to provide Larry Pierce, who produces the On-Line Bible program, with a more modern *public domain* text, similar in content and style to the AV but with a grammar that would provide better comprehension in todays English.

    I plan on maintaining an accurate copy of the Webster text. Anyone finding an error should contact me; Anyone desiring to obtain the latest, most correct text, can find it on the Bible Foundation BBS, or can contact me in the following methods:

    I would like to thank the Bible Foundation not only for scanning nearly the entire Webster Bible but for encouraging me to undertake this monumental work; particularly around page 20 when I realized what I had gotten myself into. Special thanks to Jerry Kingery of the Bible Foundation for scanning, and Jerry Hastings for doing some preliminary scan cleaning and making the texts available on the BBS.
