26  O daughter of my people, put on sackcloth,

and roll in ashes;

make mourning as ^wfor an only son,

most bitter lamentation,

for suddenly the destroyer

will come upon us.

34  “Wail, you shepherds, and cry out,

and roll in ashes, you lords of the flock,

for the days of your slaughter and dispersion have come,

and you shall fall like a choice vessel.

30  and shout aloud over you

and cry out bitterly.

They cast dust on their heads

and ^ewallow in ashes;
