Judah mourns;
her gates languish.(A)
Her people are on the ground in mourning;
Jerusalem’s cry rises up.(B)
Their nobles send their servants[a] for water.
They go to the cisterns;

they cover their heads.(C)
The ground is cracked
since no rain has fallen on the land.
The farmers are ashamed;(D)
they cover their heads.
