Jeremiah 9:17-21

This is what the LORD of Armies says: Consider, and summon the women who mourn;  send for the skillful women. Let them come quickly to raise a lament over us so that our eyes may overflow with tears, our eyelids be soaked with weeping. For a sound of lamentation is heard from Zion: How devastated we are. We are greatly ashamed,  for we have abandoned the land; our dwellings have been torn down. Now hear the word of the  LORD, you women. Pay attention to   the words from his mouth. Teach your daughters a lament and one another a dirge, for Death  has climbed through our windows; it has entered our fortresses, cutting off children from the streets, young men from the squares.
