Jeremiah 50:12

¹² Your mother shall be greatly confounded; she that bore you shall be ashamed: behold, the hindermost of the nations shall be a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.

Proverbs 16:18

¹⁸ Pride goeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.

'Mighty men,' as in Lamentations 1:15, denotes people in the good of love.
