Jeremiah 9:19-21

Tree of Life Version

¹⁹ Now, hear the word of Adonai, O women,
        let your ear receive the word of His mouth.
    Teach your daughters wailing
        and everyone her neighbor a dirge.
²⁰ For death has climbed through our windows.
    It has entered into our palaces
        to cut off children from the street
        and young men from the squares.”
