Jeremiah 9:20-22

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

²⁰ Now hear the word of the Lord, you women.
Pay attention to^[a] the words from his mouth.
Teach your daughters a lament
and one another a dirge,
²¹ for Death^(A) has climbed through our windows;
it has entered our fortresses,
cutting off children from the streets,
young men from the squares.
