Jeremiah 4:30-31

30And you, O desolate one,
what do you mean that you dress in scarlet,
athat you adorn yourself with ornaments of gold,
bthat you enlarge your eyes with paint?
In vain you beautify yourself.
cYour lovers despise you;
they seek your life.
31For I heard da cry as of a woman in labor,
anguish as of one giving birth to her first child,
the cry of the daughter of Zion gasping for breath,
estretching out her hands,
Woe is me! I am fainting before murderers.”
