Jeremiah 9:19-21
New King James Version
Jeremiah 9:19-21
New King James Version
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 (A)our 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.
21 For death has come through our windows,
Has entered our palaces,
To kill off (B)the children—[a]no longer to be outside!
And the young men—[b]no longer on the streets!
