Lamentations 4:21

Rejoice and be glad, daughter of Edom,
who dwells in the land of Uz (Hebr. Ots) [city in Edom, see Job 1:1; Jer. 25:20].
The cup [symbolic of God's judgment] will also pass over you,
you will become drunk and make yourself naked [Jer. 25:15–38; 49:12–13].
[The twenty-first Hebrew letter is: ש – shin. The character depicts two teeth and often symbolizes crushing and destroying something. In this verse, the word "Rejoice" begins with this letter, creating a contrast, because it is first joy that then turns into sorrow in practice.]
