Jeremiah 9:16-18

16 I will scatter them among nations that neither they nor their ancestors have known, and I will send the sword after them until I have consumed them.(A)
The People Mourn in Judgment
17 Thus says the Lord of hosts:
Consider and call for the mourning women to come;
send for the skilled women to come;(B)
18 let them quickly raise a dirge over us,
so that our eyes may run down with tears
and our eyelids flow with water.(C)
