Jeremiah 9:18 continues the LORD's command in verse 17 to summon the wailing women, professional mourners whom ancient Israelite society called on to lead public grief. The speaker is the LORD through Jeremiah, and the lament is over "us," the people of Judah, whose land and cities face devastation because they forsook God's law and followed the Baals.
