Jeremiah 9:19-22

19For a sound of wailing is heard from Zion: 'How we are ruined! We are utterly shamed, because we have left the land, because they have cast down our dwellings.'"

20Hear, 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.

21For death has come up into our windows; it has entered our palaces, cutting off the children from the streets and the young men from the squares.

22Speak: "Thus declares the Lord, 'The dead bodies of men shall fall like dung upon the open field, like sheaves after the reaper, and none shall gather them.'"
