Luke 23:28-31
New King James Version
28 But Jesus, turning to them, said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children. 29 (A)For indeed the days are coming in which they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren, wombs that never bore, and breasts which never nursed!’ 30 Then they will begin (B)‘to say to the mountains, “Fall on us!” and to the hills, “Cover us!” ’ 31 (C)For if they do these things in the green wood, what will be done in the dry?”

Lamentations 4:6-11
New King James Version
6 The punishment of the iniquity of the daughter of my people
Is greater than the punishment of the (A)sin of Sodom,
Which was (B)overthrown in a moment,
With no hand to help her!
7 Her [a]Nazirites were [b]brighter than snow
And whiter than milk;
They were more ruddy in body than rubies,
Like sapphire in their [c]appearance.
8 Now their appearance is blacker than soot;
They go unrecognized in the streets;
(C)Their skin clings to their bones,
It has become as dry as wood.
9 Those slain by the sword are better off
Than those who die of hunger;
For these (D)pine away,
Stricken for lack of the fruits of the (E)field.
10 The hands of the (F)compassionate women
Have [d]cooked their (G)own children;
They became (H)food for them
In the destruction of the daughter of my people.
11 The Lord has fulfilled His fury,
(I)He has poured out His fierce anger.
(J)He kindled a fire in Zion,
And it has devoured its foundations.

Who can heal you?
