Jeremiah 9:20-22
New International Version
20 Now, you women, hear the word of the Lord;
open your ears to the words of his mouth.(A)
Teach your daughters how to wail;
teach one another a lament.(B)
21 Death has climbed in through our windows(C)
and has entered our fortresses;
it has removed the children from the streets
and the young men(D) from the public squares.
22 Say, “This is what the Lord declares:
“‘Dead bodies will lie
like dung(E) on the open field,
like cut grain behind the reaper,
with no one to gather them.’”
