Go up to Lebanon, and cry; and lift up thy voice in Bashan, and cry from the passages: for all thy lovers are destroyed.

The verse 20 is found in chapter 22 of Jeremiah. Jerusalem is called to mourn from its high places because the political allies and lovers it sought will not be able to save it. The cedar of Lebanon functions as a symbol of luxury and security, but even that elevated position will be reached by judgment.

Gehe hinauf auf den Libanon und schreie und laß dich hören zu Basan und schreie von Abarim; denn alle deine Liebhaber sind zunichte gemacht.
Sube al Líbano, y clama, y en Basán da tu voz, y grita hacia todas partes; porque todos tus enamorados son quebrantados.
Sube al Líbano y clama; alza tu voz en Basán y grita desde Abarim, porque todos tus amantes han sido quebrantados.
Monte sur le Liban, et crie! Elève ta voix sur le Basan! Crie du haut d'Abarim! Car tous ceux qui t'aimaient sont brisés.
Sali pure in sul Libano, e grida; e da’ fuori la tua voce in Basan, e grida a quelli che sono di là; perciocchè tutti i tuoi amanti sono stati rotti.
Sobe ao Líbano, e clama, e levanta a tua voz em Basã, e clama desde Abarim; porque estão destruídos todos os teus namorados.
你要上 黎巴嫩 哀號, 在 巴珊 揚聲, 從 亞巴琳 哀號, 因為你所親愛的都毀滅了。
