Lamentations 5:1

[Now the acrostic that has been present in the previous chapters comes to an end. This may be a sign that the first stages of grief are over and it is now possible to start looking ahead instead. Here, in the reorientation phase, the facts are stated and what has happened is described, but without really letting it affect the emotions too much. There are no tears in this chapter. In conclusion, a vision of the future with the right relationship with God is expressed. As in the fourth lament in the previous chapter, the collective form is used.]
Remember, Lord (Yahweh), what has befallen us,
look and see our shame and disgrace.
