Lit. It is a lamentation and they shall chant it(LXX. thou shalt chant it); the daughters of the nations shall chant it; over Egypt and over all her multitude shall they chant it. The daughters of the nations, in Ezekiel 32:18 the daughters of the famous nations, chant the dirge because professional wailers were chiefly women; cf. Jeremiah 9:17, "call for the mourning women … and let them take up a wailing for us."
