Jeremiah 9:17-20

Jeremiah 9:17-20

[17] Thus saith  the LORD  of hosts,  Consider  ye, and call  for the mourning women,  that they may come;  and send  for cunning  women, that they may come:  [18] And let them make haste,  and take up  a wailing  for us, that our eyes  may run down  with tears,  and our eyelids  gush out  with waters.  [19] For a voice  of wailing  is heard  out of Zion,  How are we spoiled!  we are greatly  confounded,  because we have forsaken  the land,  because our dwellings  have cast us out.  [20] Yet hear  the word  of the LORD,  O ye women,  and let your ear  receive  the word  of his mouth,  and teach  your daughters  wailing,  and every one  her neighbour  lamentation.
