A Lament Over The Land

⁵ Awake, drunkards, and weep;
And wail, all you wine drinkers,
On account of the sweet wine
That is cut off from your mouth.
⁶ For a nation has invaded my land,
Mighty and without number;
Its teeth are the teeth of a lion,
And it has the fangs of a lioness.
⁷ It has made my vine a waste
And my fig tree splinters.
It has stripped them bare and cast them away;
Their branches have become white.

A day of darkness and gloom,
A day of clouds and thick darkness.
As the dawn is spread over the mountains,

There has never been anything like it,
Nor will there be again after it
To the years of many generations.
