Jeremiah 9:1; Jeremiah 9:10; Jeremiah 9:20

1 If only my head were a spring of water, and my eyes a fountain of tears, I would weep day and night for the wounds of my people.

10 I will weep and wail for the mountains, and lament for the grazing lands in the wilderness. They are dried up and deserted; no sound of the flocks is heard; no sign of birds or animals is seen; all have vanished.

20 Women, hear the LORD's word. Listen closely to the word from his mouth: teach your daughters to mourn; teach each other to grieve.
