Jeremiah 9:21
For death is come up into our windows, and is entered into our palaces, to cut off the children from without, and the young men from the streets.
KJV
quia ascendit mors per fenestras nostras ; ingressa est domos nostras, disperdere parvulos deforis, juvenes de plateis.
Vulgate
ὅτι ἀνέβη θάνατος διὰ τῶν θυρίδων ὑμῶν, εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὴν γῆν ὑμῶν τοῦ ἐκτρίψαι νήπια ἔξωθεν καὶ νεανίσκους ἀπὸ τῶν πλατειῶν.
LXX
For death is come up into our windows, it is entered into our palaces; to cut off the children from without, and the young men from the streets.
