In context

15Therefore the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says, “Behold, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood and give them poisoned water to drink.

16I will scatter them also among the nations, whom neither they nor their fathers have known. I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them.”

17The LORD of Armies says, “Consider, and call for the mourning women, that they may come. Send for the skillful women, that they may come.

18Let them make haste and take up a wailing for us, that our eyes may run down with tears and our eyelids gush out with waters.

19For a voice of wailing is heard out of Zion, ‘How we are ruined! We are greatly confounded because we have forsaken the land, because they have cast down our dwellings.’”
