Jeremiah 9:20-22

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁰ ‘Now hear the Lord's message, you women.
    Listen to what he says to you.
Teach your daughters how to weep.
    Teach each other this funeral song:
²¹ “Death has come to visit us!
    It has come into our strong houses.
Death has taken away our children
    who play in the streets.
It has taken away our young men
    who meet together in the streets.”
