5 Our necks are under persecution: we labour, and have no rest.

7 Our fathers have sinned -- they are not, We their iniquities have borne.
7 Our fathers have sinned, and are not; and we have borne their iniquities.
7 Our fathers sinned; they no longer exist,but we bear their punishment.
7 Our ancestors sinned and no longer exist yet we continue to bear the consequences of their sin.
9 With our lives we bring in our bread, Because of the sword of the wilderness.
9 We gat our bread with the peril of our lives because of the sword of the wilderness.
9 We secure our food at the risk of our livesbecause of the sword in the wilderness.

22 For hast Thou utterly rejected us? Thou hast been wroth against us -- exceedingly?
22 But thou hast utterly rejected us; thou art very wroth against us.
22 unless You have completely rejected usand are intensely angry with us.
22 unless you have utterly rejected us and are angry with us without limit.
