We thought we would be leaders, but we ended up at the bottom. We worked hard but got nothing from our efforts. Now we are like food for the wicked and unjust, and they have put a heavy burden on us.
We hoped to be the head and have become the tail: We have toiled laboriously and had no satisfaction in our toil; And we have become the food of the sinners and the unrighteous, And they have laid their yoke heavily upon us.
