Lamentations 2:19

Get up [Mark 5:41], cry out in the night,
at the first watch [between six and ten in the evening].
Pour out your heart like water
before the face of the Lord (Adonai).
Lift up your hands before him,
for the souls (lives) of your young children,
who are exhausted by hunger
on every street corner.
[The nineteenth Hebrew letter is: ק – Qof. The character depicts the eye of a needle or the back of a head and is also an image of standing behind someone and helping. In this verse, it is the words "Arise" that begin with that letter. It reinforces the zeal and seriousness of the action. These are not just my words; I am ready to act in accordance with what I say. The verse is longer than the others, which reinforces the fact that it has recently grown dark, night has just begun, and dawn and light are still far away. The Jews divided the night into three watches, the Romans into four, see Matt. 14:25; Luke 12:38.]
