fthat our eyes may run down with tears
and our eyelids flow with water.

gHow we are ruined!
We are utterly shamed,
because we have left the land,
because they have cast down our dwellings.’”

and let your ear receive the word of his mouth;
teach to your daughters a lament,
and each to her neighbor a dirge.
