16Therefore thus says the Lord God of hosts, the Lord, “There is 1wailing in all the plazas, And in all the streets they say, ‘Alas! Alas!’ They also call the 2farmer to mourning And 3 4professional mourners to lamentation.17And in all the 5vineyards there is wailing, Because I will pass through the midst of you,” says the Lord.
