Jeremías 9:18 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 9:18

And let them make haste, and take up a wailing for us
Deliver out a mournful song, as the Arabic version; setting forth their miseries and distresses, and affecting their minds with them. The prophet puts himself among the people, as being a party concealed in their sufferings, and sympathizing with them, as well as to show the certainty of then and how soon they would be involved in them: that our eyes may run down with tears, and our eyelids gush out with
waters;
or balls of the eye, as the Targum and Kimchi; these hyperbolical expressions are used to express the greatness of the calamity, and that no mourning was equal to it; see ( Jeremiah 9:1 ) .

Jeremías 9:18 In-Context

16 Los esparciré entre las naciones que no conocieron ni ellos ni sus padres, y enviaré tras ellos la espada hasta aniquilarlos.
17 Así dice el SEÑOR de los ejércitos: Considerad, llamad a las plañideras, que vengan; enviad por las más hábiles, que vengan,
18 que se apresuren y eleven una lamentación por nosotros, para que derramen lágrimas nuestros ojos y fluya agua de nuestros párpados.
19 Porque voz de lamentación se oye desde Sion: "¡Cómo hemos sido arrasados! En gran manera estamos avergonzados, porque tenemos que abandonar la tierra, porque han derribado nuestras moradas."
20 Oíd, pues, mujeres, la palabra del SEÑOR, y reciba vuestro oído la palabra de su boca; enseñad la lamentación a vuestras hijas y la endecha cada una a su vecina.
