錫安的城門必悲傷、哀哭，錫安必空空地坐在地上。

他們遠遠地看見約伯，幾乎認不出是他，禁不住放聲大哭，各自撕裂外袍，揚起塵土，讓土落在頭上。他們看到約伯極其痛苦，就陪著他在地上坐了七天七夜，沒有對他說一句話。

他們身披麻衣走在街上，房頂和廣場上都傳出號啕大哭的聲音。

到那日，殿裡的歌聲要變成哀號；屍橫遍地，一片死寂。這是主耶和華說的。」

從前人煙稠密的城，現在何其荒涼！從前揚威萬邦的強國，現在竟像寡婦一樣。從前在諸省做公主的，現在卻淪為奴婢。

受耶和華管教時，要默然獨坐。

他們必身披麻衣，戰慄發抖。他們必剃光頭髮，滿面羞愧。

通往錫安的道路滿目淒涼，因為無人前去過節。她的城門冷落，她的祭司悲歎，她的少女哀傷，她痛苦不已。

「巴比倫的少女啊，下來坐在塵土中吧！迦勒底的姑娘啊，坐在沒有寶座的地上吧！因為你必不再嬌柔細嫩。

約書亞和以色列的長老便撕裂衣服，把灰撒在頭上，俯伏在耶和華的約櫃面前，直到晚上。

她瑪把灰塵撒在頭上，撕破身上的彩衣，雙手抱著頭，一面走一面哭。

昔日錦衣玉食、生活奢侈的，如今卻流落街頭，躺臥在糞堆中。

他們說：「我們為什麼還坐在這裡？大家一起進入堅城，死在那裡吧！我們的上帝耶和華要毀滅我們，給我們毒藥喝，因為我們得罪了祂。

於是，宮廷總管以利亞敬、書記舍伯那和史官約亞都撕裂衣服，去向希西迦稟告亞述的將軍說的話。

老人不再坐在城門口，青年不再彈琴奏樂。

我的子民啊，你們要像死了未婚夫的少女，穿上喪服痛哭哀號。

「到那日，美麗少女和青春少男都要因乾渴而昏倒；

耶和華親自驅散他們，不再眷顧他們；人們不再尊重祭司，也不再敬重長老。

又為你剃頭披麻，悲痛哀傷。

這是邪惡的時代，所以明智者靜默不言。

首領雙手被吊起來，老人得不到尊敬。

「迦勒底的姑娘啊，要靜靜地坐著，進入黑暗中，因為你不再被稱為列國之後。

他們又把塵土撒在頭上，哀傷哭泣，喊著說，『這大城啊，真悲慘！真悲慘！所有經營航運的都因她的奢華而發了財，可是頃刻間她卻淪為廢墟了！』
