Exegesis
A sequence of imperfect verbs—wə-dā-mō-ʿa {וְדָמֹעַ | wə-dā-mō-ʿa} ‘and it will drip,’ tidmaʿ {תִדְמַע | tid-maʿ} ‘it will weep,’ and wə-tērad {וְתֵרַד | wə-tē-rad} ‘and it will run down’—depicts escalating sorrow, culminating in ʿēnî dim-ʿāh {עֵינִי דִמְעָה | ʿē-nî dim-ʿā} ‘my eye tear.’
In context — Jeremiah 13:17
But if you will not listen to it, in secret places my soul shall weep because of pride; and my eye will weep and run down with tears, because the flock of the LORD is taken captive.
