¹⁷ “You will say this word to them,
‘^(A)Let my eyes flow down with tears night and day,
And let them not cease;
For the virgin ^(B)daughter of my people has been crushed with a mighty blow,
With a sorely ^(C)infected wound.

¹³ How shall I admonish you?
To what ^(A)shall I compare you,
O daughter of Jerusalem?
To what shall I liken you as I comfort you,
O ^(B)virgin daughter of Zion?
For your ^[a]ruin is as vast as the sea;
Who can ^(C)heal you?
