Jeremiah 4:31

כִּי קוֹל כְּחוֹלָה שָׁמַעְתִּי צָרָה כְּמַבְכִּירָה קוֹל בַּת-צִיּוֹן תִּתְיַפֵּחַ תְּפָרֵשׂ כַּפֶּיהָ אֽוֹי-נָא לִי כִּֽי-עָיְפָה נַפְשִׁי לְהֹרְגִֽים׃
31
For I have heard a voice as of a woman in travail, and the anguish as of her that bringeth forth her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, that bewaileth herself, that spreadeth her hands, saying, Woe is me now! for my soul is wearied because of murderers.

Isaiah 1:8

וְנוֹתְרָה בַת-צִיּוֹן כְּסֻכָּה בְכָרֶם כִּמְלוּנָה בְמִקְשָׁה כְּעִיר נְצוּרָֽה׃
8
And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.

Lamentations 2:13

מָֽה-אֲעִידֵךְ מָה אֲדַמֶּה-לָּךְ הַבַּת יְרוּשָׁלִַם מָה אַשְׁוֶה-לָּךְ וַאֲנַֽחֲמֵךְ בְּתוּלַת בַּת-צִיּוֹן כִּֽי-גָדוֹל כַּיָּם שִׁבְרֵךְ מִי יִרְפָּא-לָֽךְ׃
13
What thing shall I take to witness for thee? what thing shall I liken to thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? what shall I equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? for thy breach is great like the sea: who can heal thee?

Isaiah 3:16

וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה יַעַן כִּי גָֽבְהוּ בְּנוֹת צִיּוֹן וַתֵּלַכְנָה ‫(נטוות)‬ נְטוּיוֹת גָּרוֹן וּֽמְשַׂקְּרוֹת עֵינָיִם הָלוֹךְ וְטָפֹף תֵּלַכְנָה וּבְרַגְלֵיהֶם תְּעַכַּֽסְנָה׃
16
Moreover the LORD saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet:

Lamentations 2:1

אֵיכָה יָעִיב בְּאַפּוֹ׀ אֲדֹנָי אֶת-בַּת-צִיּוֹן הִשְׁלִיךְ מִשָּׁמַיִם אֶרֶץ תִּפְאֶרֶת יִשְׂרָאֵל וְלֹא-זָכַר הֲדֹם-רַגְלָיו בְּיוֹם אַפּֽוֹ׃
1
How hath the Lord covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger, and cast down from heaven unto the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered not his footstool in the day of his anger!
