The Vision of a Weeping Woman
38 When I said these things in my heart, I looked around,[a] and on my right I saw a woman; she was mourning and weeping with a loud voice, and was deeply grieved at heart; her clothes were torn, and there were ashes on her head. 39 Then I dismissed the thoughts with which I had been engaged, and turned to her 40 and said to her, ‘Why are you weeping, and why are you grieved at heart?’
