Jeremías 14:17

Jer 14:17 Therefore thou shalt say this word unto them; Let mine eyes run down with tears night and day, and let them not cease: for the virgin daughter of my people is broken with a great breach, with a very grievous blow.

Ver. 17. Let mine eyes run down. ] This the prophet did doubtless in good earnest; like as Samuel mourned for the rejection of Saul, and our Saviour wept over Jerusalem.

And let them not cease. ] Heb., Be silent; for tears also have a voice, Psa 39:12 and do oft prove very effectual orators.
