Jeremiah 9:17-22

17Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Consider, and call for the mourning women, that they may comeH3381, and send for the skilful women, that they may comeH3381;

18and let them makeH8085 haste, and take up a wailingH5092 for us, that our eyes may run down with tears, and our eyelids pour forth waters.

19For a voice of wailingH5092 is heardH8085 out of Zion, How are we spoiled, sorely put to shame! For we have forsaken the land, for they have cast down our dwellings.

20Hear then the word of Jehovah, ye women, and let your ear receive the word of his mouth, and teach your daughters wailing, and each one her companion lamentation.

21For death is come up through our windows, is entered into our palaces, to cut off the children from the street, the young menH120 from the broadways.

22Speak, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah: Yea, the carcases of menH1368 shall fall as dung upon the open field, and as the handful after the reaper, and there shall be none to gather.
