יֵשְׁב֨וּ לָאָ֤רֶץ יִדְּמוּ֙ זִקְנֵ֣י בַת־צִיּ֔וֹן הֶֽעֱל֤וּ עָפָר֙ עַל־רֹאשָׁ֔ם חָגְר֖וּ שַׂקִּ֑ים הוֹרִ֤ידוּ לָאָ֙רֶץ֙ רֹאשָׁ֔ן בְּתוּלֹ֖ת יְרוּשָׁלִָֽם׃ (ס)
Nakaupo sa lupa at tahimik ang matatanda ng anak na babae ng Zion; nagsaboy sila ng alabok sa kanilang ulo, nagbigkis sila ng magaspang na telang-sako; iniyuko hanggang sa lupa ng mga dalaga ng Jerusalem ang kanilang ulo.
Ecclesiastes
[The evil:] He has placed folly [i.e., men of wickedness and folly, who are destined to destroy the Temple] in the height of heights, and the "wealthy" [i.e., Israel, the distinguished men of my (Solomon's) days] shall sit in lowliness [viz. Eichah 2:10].
