Jeremiah 9:16-18

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁶ I will scatter them also among nations that neither they nor their fathers have known, and I will send the sword among them and after them until I have consumed them.

¹⁷ Thus says the Lord of hosts: Consider and call for the mourning women to come; send for the skillful women to come.

¹⁸ Let them make haste and raise a wailing over us and for us, that our eyes may run down with tears and our eyelids gush with water.
