Jeremiah 9:19-21

Modern English Version

²⁰ Yet hear the word of the Lord, O you women,
    and let your ear receive the word of His mouth;
and teach your daughters wailing,
    and everyone her neighbor a lamentation.
²¹ “For death has come up into our windows;
    and has entered our palaces,
to cut off the children from the streets,
    and the young men from the squares.”
