עַל־זֹאת֙ אֶסְפְּדָ֣ה וְאֵילִ֔ילָה אֵילְכָ֥ה שילל שׁוֹלָ֖ל וְעָר֑וֹם אֶעֱשֶׂ֤ה מִסְפֵּד֙ כַּתַּנִּ֔ים וְאֵ֖בֶל כִּבְנ֥וֹת יַעֲנָֽה׃
ʿal-zoʾt ʾespdah vʾeyliylah ʾeylkah shyll shvolal vʿarvom ʾeʿesheh misped kataniym vʾebel kibnvot yaʿanah
King James Version (KJV)

Therefore I will wail and howl, I will go stripped and naked: I will make a wailing like the dragons, and mourning as the owls. {owls: Heb. daughters of the owl}

Modern English

For this I will lament and wail; I will go stripped and naked; I will howl like the jackals, and moan like the daughters of owls.
