Jeremiah 9:18-20

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

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