Jeremiah 9:10

¹⁰“I will take up a weeping and wailing for the ^(A)mountains,
And for the pastures of the ^(B)wilderness a song of mourning,
Because they are ^(C)laid waste so that no one passes through,
And the sound of the livestock is not heard;
Both the ^(D)birds of the sky and the animals have fled; they are gone.

¹⁸Have them hurry and take up a wailing for us,
So that our ^(A)eyes may shed tears,
And our eyelids flow with water.

‘^(C)How devastated we are!
We are put to great shame,
For we have ^(D)abandoned the land
Because they have torn down our homes.’”
²⁰Now hear the word of the Lord, you ^(E)women,
And let your ears receive the word of His mouth;
Teach your daughters wailing,
And have every woman teach her neighbor a song of mourning.
