Jeremiah 15:8-10
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
8 Their widows are multiplied unto me above the sand of the sea: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young man a spoiler at noonday: I have cast a terror on a sudden upon the cities.
9 She that hath borne seven is become weak, her soul hath fainted away: her sun is gone down, while it was yet day: she is confounded, and ashamed: and the residue of them I will give up to the sword in the sight of their enemies, saith the Lord.
10 Woe is me, my mother: why hast thou borne me a man of strife, a man of contention to all the earth? I have not lent on usury, neither hath any man lent to me on usury: yet all curse me.

Jeremiah 15:8-10
New International Version
8 I will make their widows(A) more numerous
than the sand of the sea.
At midday I will bring a destroyer(B)
against the mothers of their young men;
suddenly I will bring down on them
anguish and terror.(C)
9 The mother of seven will grow faint(D)
and breathe her last.(E)
Her sun will set while it is still day;
she will be disgraced(F) and humiliated.
I will put the survivors to the sword(G)
before their enemies,”(H)
declares the Lord.
