Amos 5:16

Therefore, says the Lord (Yahweh), God of hosts (Elohim Sebaot):
"There shall be lamentation in all the open places (marketplaces)
and they shall say in all the streets, 'Alas (woe), alas (woe)'
and they shall call the master of the house to mourn
with those who know how to lament (those who are skilled in lamentation, professional mourners).
