For a voice of wailing is heard out of Zion, How are we spoiled! we are greatly confounded, because we have forsaken the land, because our dwellings have cast us out.
How are we spoiled! - the cry of "the mourning women."
Spoiled - laid waste.
Our dwellings have cast us out - fulfilling Leviticus 18:28, "That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out the nations that were before you" (cf. Leviticus 20:22). Calvin translates, 'The enemy have cast down our habitations.' I prefer the English version, as fulfilling Leviticus 18:28, to which Jeremiah alludes.
