10
For rule [is] on rule, rule on rule, line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there,
11

17
Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Consider ye, and call for mourning women, And they come, And to the wise women send, and they come,
18
And they hasten, and lift up for us a wailing. And run down our eyes do tears, And from our eyelids do waters flow.
