Hear ye this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house of Israel.

Hear this word, O house of Israel, this lamentation I take up against you:

The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is forsaken upon her land; there is none to raise her up.

“Fallen is Virgin Israel, never to rise again. She lies abandoned on her land, with no one to raise her up.”
