‏ Lamentations 5:5

5 We are pursued—they are breathing down our necks; ^{▼▼tn Heb “We are hard-driven on our necks.”}
we are weary and have no rest. ^{▼▼sn For the theological allusion that goes beyond physical rest, see, e.g., Deut 12:10; 25:19; Josh 1:13; 11:23; 2 Sam 7:1, 11; 1 Chron 22:18; 2 Chron 14:6-7.}
