Mga Sipi mula sa Tanakh sa Mga Panaghoy 5:21: Siddur Edot HaMizrach, Siddur Sefard & Siddur Ashkenaz

On the tenth month, my oppressors raised an embankment against my city. On the tenth of the month, the ones who made my wound an inheritance surrounded me. 'My innards, my innards, I am shaken!' I am shaken on this day towards the One praised in the great council of the holy ones; I will beseech His presence to forego the rebellion and the guilt: Do not turn to our evil; erase the recorded sin; 'bring us back, Lord, to You and we shall return!'

22. The upper stone has turned into heaps to be plowed, and those who possess the inheritance have turned into the chief wanderers among the nations. Inside me, my heart hurts, injured and depressed, as we are left with no parent, become like orphans. Soft and dainty, surrounded by roses, but now she moans, given over to the opponent. She was like a widow, the faithful city, with innumerable children, who have been sold for no money. Dainty and soft, rising to royalty, whose suffering has extended for many years and days. The House of Jacob is plundered, boldly mocked, the joyful city belongs to those planting vineyards. Her thirst was satisfied with poison, in the hand of the evil people, the one as desirable as an olah-offering and as the spiced incense. She rejected and abandoned the Torah of my abandoning parent, and could not find rest during night or day. Mighty, Ultimate God, issue a proclamation commanding a return for Zion's fight, a year of repayment. "Restore our days like in antiquity," answer, ancient God, and whiten the red like fleece, stains like snow. Strengthen us with fear of You, and with observance of your Torah, and remember us with your salvation, God, full of mercy.
