Quotation for Lamentations 5:9

בְּנַפְשֵׁ֙נוּ֙ נָבִ֣יא לַחְמֵ֔נוּ מִפְּנֵ֖י חֶ֥רֶב הַמִּדְבָּֽר׃

We get our bread with the peril of our lives Because of the sword of the wilderness.

Kinnot for Tisha B'Av (Ashkenaz)

We risk our lives to get our bread. Alas! Because we closed our hands to the needy. Alas! what has occurred to us.
