Psalms 69:20

and for ⁱcomforters, but I found none.

Jeremiah 9:17-21

17 Thus says the Lord of hosts:
^j“Consider, and call for the mourning women to come;
send for the skillful women to come;
18 let them make haste ^kand raise a wailing over us,
^lthat our eyes may run down with tears
and our eyelids flow with water.
19 For a sound of wailing is heard from Zion:
^m‘How we are ruined!
We are utterly shamed,
because we have left the land,
because they have cast down our dwellings.’”
20 Hear, O women, the word of the Lord,
and let your ear receive the word of his mouth;
teach to your daughters a lament,
and each to her neighbor a dirge.
21 For death has come up into our windows;
it has entered our palaces,
ⁿcutting off the children from the streets
and the young men from the squares.

Lamentations 1:9

9 Her uncleanness was ^oin her skirts;

therefore her fall is terrible;
^rshe has no comforter.
“O Lord, behold my affliction,
for the enemy has ^striumphed!”

Lamentations 1:12

12 “Is it nothing to you, all ^tyou who pass by?
^uLook and see
if there is any sorrow like my sorrow,
which was brought upon me,
which ^vthe Lord inflicted
on ^wthe day of his fierce anger.

Lamentations 1:17

17 ^xZion stretches out her hands,
but ^ythere is none to comfort her;
the Lord has commanded against Jacob
that his neighbors should be his foes;
Jerusalem has become
a filthy thing among them.

Amos 7:2

2 When they had finished eating the grass of the land, I said,

“O Lord God, please forgive!
^zHow can Jacob stand?
He is so small!”
