and my eyes a fountain of tears,
so that I might weep day and night
for the slain of my poor people!

Jeremiah 9:4-7
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
4 Beware of your neighbours,
and put no trust in any of your kin;[a]
for all your kin[b] are supplanters,
and every neighbour goes around like a slanderer.
5 They all deceive their neighbours,
and no one speaks the truth;
they have taught their tongues to speak lies;
they commit iniquity and are too weary to repent.[c]
6 Oppression upon oppression, deceit[d] upon deceit!
They refuse to know me, says the Lord.
7 Therefore, thus says the Lord of hosts:
I will now refine and test them,
for what else can I do with my sinful people?[e]
