I take up # 30_AMO_05_01 # Hear ye this word which I take up against you, [even] a lamentation, O house of Israel. 
I take up # 24_JER_09_10 # For the mountains will I take up a weeping and wailing, and for the habitations of the wilderness a lamentation, because they are burned up, so that none can pass through [them]; neither can [men] hear the voice of the cattle; both the fowl of the heavens and the beast are fled; they are gone.
