The People Mourn in Judgment
17 Thus says the Lord of hosts:
Consider and call for the mourning women to come;
send for the skilled women to come;(A)
18 let them quickly raise a dirge over us,
so that our eyes may run down with tears
and our eyelids flow with water.(B)
19 For 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.”(C)
20 Hear, O women, the word of the Lord,
and let your ears receive the word of his mouth;
teach to your daughters a dirge
and each to her neighbor a lament.(D)
21 “Death has come up into our windows;
it has entered our palaces
to cut off the children from the streets
and the young men from the squares.”(E)
Jeremiah 9:17-21

Jeremiah 9:17-21
New International Version
17 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Consider now! Call for the wailing women(A) to come;
send for the most skillful of them.
18 Let them come quickly
and wail over us
till our eyes overflow with tears
and water streams from our eyelids.(B)
19 The sound of wailing is heard from Zion:
‘How ruined(C) we are!
How great is our shame!
We must leave our land
because our houses are in ruins.’”
20 Now, you women, hear the word of the Lord;
open your ears to the words of his mouth.(D)
Teach your daughters how to wail;
teach one another a lament.(E)
21 Death has climbed in through our windows(F)
and has entered our fortresses;
it has removed the children from the streets
and the young men(G) from the public squares.

5 when one is afraid of heights, and terrors are in the road; the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper drags itself along,[a] and the caper bud falls; because all must go to their eternal home, and the mourners will go about the streets;(A)
