Speak, Thus saith the LORD, Even the carcases of men shall fall as dung upon the open field, and as the handful after the harvestman, and none shall gather them.

The verse 22 is found in chapter 9 of Jeremiah. The explanation of the disaster is directly connected to abandoning Yahweh’s law and following the Baals. True wisdom does not consist in wealth, power, or abstract knowledge, but in understanding that God practices steadfast love, justice, and righteousness. The mourning women summoned demonstrate the social and public dimension of grief.

So spricht der HERR: Ein Weiser rühme sich nicht seiner Weisheit, ein Starker rühme sich nicht seiner Stärke, ein Reicher rühme sich nicht seines Reichtums;
Habla: Así ha dicho Jehová: Los cuerpos de los hombres muertos caerán como estiércol sobre la haz del campo, y como manojo tras el segador, que no hay quien lo recoja.
Di: «Así declara Jehová: los cadáveres humanos caerán como estiércol sobre la superficie del campo, como gavillas detrás del segador, sin que nadie las recoja».
Dis: Ainsi parle l'Eternel: Les cadavres des hommes tomberont Comme du fumier sur les champs, Comme tombe derrière le moissonneur une gerbe Que personne ne ramasse.
Parla: Così ha detto il Signore: I corpi morti degli uomini ancora giaceranno come letame su per la campagna, e come una manella di spighe, lasciata indietro dal mietitore, la quale niuno raccoglie
Fala: Assim diz o SENHOR: Até os cadáveres dos homens jazerão como esterco sobre a face do campo, e como gavela atrás do segador, e não há quem a recolha.
你當說,耶和華如此說: 人的屍首必倒在田野像糞土, 又像收割的人身後遺落的禾稼, 無人拾取。
