The People Mourn in Judgment
17 Thus says the Lord of hosts:
“Consider and call for athe mourning women,
That they may come;
And send for skillful wailing women,
That they may come.
“Consider and call for athe mourning women,
That they may come;
And send for skillful wailing women,
That they may come.
18 Let them make haste
And take up a wailing for us,
That aour eyes may run with tears,
And our eyelids gush with water.
And take up a wailing for us,
That aour eyes may run with tears,
And our eyelids gush with water.
19 For a voice of wailing is heard from Zion:
‘How we are plundered!
We are greatly ashamed,
Because we have forsaken the land,
Because we have been cast out of aour dwellings.’ ”
‘How we are plundered!
We are greatly ashamed,
Because we have forsaken the land,
Because we have been cast out of aour dwellings.’ ”
20 Yet hear the word of the Lord, O women,
And let your ear receive the word of His mouth;
Teach your daughters wailing,
And everyone her neighbor a lamentation.
And let your ear receive the word of His mouth;
Teach your daughters wailing,
And everyone her neighbor a lamentation.
21 For death has come through our windows,
Has entered our palaces,
To kill off athe children— no longer to be outside!
And the young men—1 no longer on the streets!
Has entered our palaces,
To kill off athe children— no longer to be outside!
And the young men—1 no longer on the streets!
