Jeremiah 9:17-20

¹⁷This is what the LORD of Hosts says:

“Take note, and summon the wailing women;

send for the most skillful among them.

¹⁸Let them come quickly

and take up a lament over us,

that our eyes may overflow with tears,

and our eyelids may gush with water.

¹⁹For the sound of wailing

is heard from Zion:

‘How devastated we are!

How great is our shame!

For we have abandoned the land

because our dwellings have been torn down.’”

²⁰Now, O women, hear the word of the LORD.

Open your ears to the word of His mouth.

Teach your daughters to wail,

and one another to lament.
