Jeremiah 9:17-22
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 9
17
This is what the
Lord
of armies says:
'Consider and call for the mourning women, that they may come;
And send for the skillful women, that they may come!
18
Have them hurry and take up a wailing for us,
So that our eyes may shed tears,
And our eyelids flow with water.
19
For a voice of wailing is heard from Zion:
‘How devastated we are!
We are put to great shame,
For we have abandoned the land
Because they have torn down our homes.’?'
20
Now hear the word of the
Lord
, you women,
And let your ears receive the word of His mouth;
Teach your daughters wailing,
And
have every
woman
teach
her neighbor a song of mourning.
21
For death has come up through our windows;
It has entered our palaces
To eliminate the children from the streets,
The young men from the public squares.
22
Speak, 'This is what the
Lord
says:
‘The corpses of people will fall like dung on the open field,
And like the sheaf after the reaper,
But no one will gather
them.
’?'
King James Version
Chapter 9
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.
21
For death is come up into our windows, and is entered into our palaces, to cut off the children from without, and the young men from the streets.
22
Speak, Thus saith the
Lord
, Even the carcases of men shall fall as dung upon the open field, and as the handful after the harvestman, and none shall gather them.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 9
17
This is what the
Lord
of Armies says:
Consider, and summon the women who mourn;
send for the skillful women.
18
Let them come quickly to raise a lament over us
so that our eyes may overflow with tears,
our eyelids be soaked with weeping.
19
For a sound of lamentation is heard from Zion:
How devastated we are.
We are greatly ashamed,
for we have abandoned the land;
our dwellings have been torn down.
20
Now hear the word of the
Lord
, you women.
Pay attention to the words from his mouth.
Teach your daughters a lament
and one another a dirge,
21
for Death has climbed through our windows;
it has entered our fortresses,
cutting off children from the streets,
young men from the squares.
22
"Speak as follows: ‘This is what the
Lord
declares: Human corpses will fall like manure on the surface of the field, like newly cut grain after the reaper with no one to gather it.
New Living Translation
Chapter 9
17
This is what the
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies says:
'Consider all this, and call for the mourners.
Send for the women who mourn at funerals.
18
Quick! Begin your weeping!
Let the tears flow from your eyes.
19
Hear the people of Jerusalem crying in despair,
‘We are ruined! We are completely humiliated!
We must leave our land,
because our homes have been torn down.’'
20
Listen, you women, to the words of the
Lord
;
open your ears to what he has to say.
Teach your daughters to wail;
teach one another how to lament.
21
For death has crept in through our windows
and has entered our mansions.
It has killed off the flower of our youth:
Children no longer play in the streets,
and young men no longer gather in the squares.
22
This is what the
Lord
says:
'Bodies will be scattered across the fields like clumps of manure,
like bundles of grain after the harvest.
No one will be left to bury them.'
English Standard Version

Lord
of hosts:

that our eyes may run down with tears
and our eyelids flow with water.
19
For a sound of wailing is heard from Zion:
‘How we are ruined!
We are utterly shamed,
because we have left the land,
because they have cast down our dwellings.’"
20
Hear, O women, the word of the
Lord
,
and let your ear receive the word of his mouth;
teach to your daughters a lament,
and each to her neighbor a dirge.
21

it has entered our palaces,
cutting off the children from the streets
and the young men from the squares.

like dung upon the open field,
like sheaves after the reaper,
and none shall gather them.’"

17
This is what the
Lord
Almighty says:
"Consider now! Call for the wailing women to come;
send for the most skillful of them.
18
Let them come quickly
and wail over us
till our eyes overflow with tears
and water streams from our eyelids.
19
The sound of wailing is heard from Zion:
‘How ruined we are!
How great is our shame!
We must leave our land
because our houses are in ruins.’ "
20
Now, you women, hear the word of the
Lord
;
open your ears to the words of his mouth.
Teach your daughters how to wail;
teach one another a lament.
21
Death has climbed in through our windows
and has entered our fortresses;
it has removed the children from the streets
and the young men from the public squares.
22
Say, "This is what the
Lord
declares:
" ‘Dead bodies will lie
like dung on the open field,
like cut grain behind the reaper,
with no one to gather them.’ "
New King James Version

Lord
of hosts:

That they may come;

And take up a wailing for us,
That our eyes may run with tears,
And our eyelids gush with water.
19
For a voice of wailing is heard from Zion:
‘How we are plundered!
We are greatly ashamed,
Because we have forsaken the land,
Because we have been cast out of our dwellings.’ ”
20
Yet hear the word of the
Lord
, O women,
And let your ear receive the word of His mouth;
Teach your daughters wailing,
And everyone her neighbor a lamentation.
21
For death has come through our windows,
Has entered our palaces,
To kill off the children—
no longer to be
outside!
And
the young men—
no longer
on the streets!
22
Speak, “Thus says the
Lord
:
‘Even the carcasses of men shall fall as refuse on the open field,
Like cuttings after the harvester,
And no one shall gather
them.
’ ”
