Jeremiah 9:17-20

17Thus says the Lord of hosts, “Consider and call for the mourning women to come; Send for the wailing women to come.

18Let them hurry and take up a wailing for us, That our eyes may shed tears And our eyelids flow with water.

19For a sound of wailing is heard [coming] from Zion: ‘How we are ruined! We are greatly perplexed and utterly shamed, Because we have left the land, Because they have torn down our dwellings.’ ”

20Now hear the word of the Lord, O you women, And let your ear hear the word of His mouth; Teach your daughters a song of mourning, And each one [teach] her neighbor a dirge.
