- I will wail:
- "Therefore¹¹ I will bewailª° with the weepingª of Jazerª the vineª of Sibmah:ª I will waterª° thee with my tears,ª O Heshbon,ª and Elealeh:ª for¹ the shoutingª for¹ thy summer fruitsª and for¹ thy harvestª is fallen.ª°" {Isa 16:9} + "Therefore¹¹ are my loinsª filledª° with pain:ª pangsª have taken holdª° upon me, as the pangsª of a woman that travaileth:ª° I was bowed downª° at the hearingª°¹ [of it]; I was dismayedª° at the seeingª°¹ [of it]." {Isa 21:3} + "Therefore¹¹ saidª° I, Look awayª° from¹ me; I will weepª bitterly,ª° labourª° not¹ to comfortª° me, because¹ of the spoilingª of the daughterª of my people.ª" {Isa 22:4} + "My bowels,ª my bowels!ª I am painedª²°°° at my veryª heart;ª my heartª maketh a noiseª° in me; I cannot¹ hold my peace,ª° because¹ thou hast heard,ª° O my soul,ª the soundª of the trumpet,ª the alarmª of war.ª" {Jer 4:19} + "Oh that²°¹ my headª were¹ waters,ª and mine eyesª a fountainª of tears,ª that I might weepª° dayª and nightª for¹ the slainª of the daughterª of my people!ª" {Jer 9:1} + "For¹ the mountainsª will I take upª° a weepingª and wailing,ª and for¹ the habitationsª of the wildernessª a lamentation,ª because¹ they are burned up,ª° so that noneª¹¹ can pass²° through¹ [them]; neither¹ can [men] hearª° the voiceª of the cattle;ª both the fowlª¹ of the heavensª and the beastª are fled;ª° they are gone.ª°" {Jer 9:10} + "For¹ a voiceª of wailingª is heardª° out of Zion,ª¹ How¹ are we spoiled!ª° we are greatlyª confounded,ª° because¹ we have forsakenª° the land,ª because¹ our dwellingsª have cast [us] out.ª°" {Jer 9:19} + "Therefore¹¹ mine heartª shall soundª° for Moabª like pipes,ª and mine heartª shall soundª° like pipesª for¹ the men²¹ of Kirheres:ª because¹¹ the richesª [that] he hath gottenª° are perished.ª° ... They shall howl,ª° [saying], How¹ is it broken down!ª° how¹ hath Moabª turnedª° the backª with shame!ª° so shall Moabª be¹ a derisionª and a dismayingª to all¹ them aboutª him." {Jer 48:36-39}
