'Eyes' in the Bible

“I weep for these things;My eyes overflow with tears,Because a comforter,One who could restore my soul, is far away from me.My children are desolate and perishing,For the enemy has prevailed.”

My eyes fail because of tears [mourns Jeremiah],My spirit is deeply disturbed;My heart is poured out on the earth [in grief]Because of the destruction of the daughter of my people [Jerusalem],When little ones and infants faintIn the streets of the city.

Their hearts cried out to the Lord.“O wall of the Daughter of Zion,Let your tears run down like a river day and night;Give yourself no relief,Let your eyes have no rest.

My eyes overflow with streams of tearsBecause of the destruction of the daughter of my people (Jerusalem).

My eyes overflow unceasingly,Without stopping,

My eyes [see things that] bring pain to my soulBecause of all the daughters of my city.

[And as for us,] yet our eyes failed,Looking in vain for help.Watching [from the towers] we watchedFor a nation that could not save.

Because of this our heart is faint,Because of these things our eyes are dim.
