That watchers come from a afar country
And raise their voice against the cities of Judah.

Sorrow for the Doomed Nation
19 O my asoul, my soul!
I am pained in my very heart!
My heart makes a noise in me;
I cannot hold my peace,
Because you have heard, O my soul,
The sound of the trumpet,
The alarm of war.
I am pained in my very heart!
My heart makes a noise in me;
I cannot hold my peace,
Because you have heard, O my soul,
The sound of the trumpet,
The alarm of war.
20 aDestruction upon destruction is cried,
For the whole land is plundered.
Suddenly bmy tents are plundered,
And my curtains in a moment.
For the whole land is plundered.
Suddenly bmy tents are plundered,
And my curtains in a moment.
