Jeremiah 9:17-21
17Thus says the Lord of hosts, “Consider and call for the amourning women, that they may come;And send for the ▼
▼ Lit skilled
,
cwailing women, that they may come!18“Let them make haste and take up a wailing for us,
That our deyes may shed tears
And our eyelids flow with water.
19“For a voice of ewailing is heard from Zion,
‘ fHow are we ruined!
We are put to great shame,
For we have gleft the land,
Because they have cast down our dwellings.’”
20Now hear the word of the Lord, O you hwomen,
And let your ear receive the word of His mouth;
Teach your daughters wailing,
And everyone her neighbor a dirge.
21For ideath has come up through our windows;
It has entered our palaces
To cut off the jchildren from the streets,
The young men from the town squares.
