Jeremiah, the “weeping prophet,” used the phrase several times, but the most familiar “woe” was in the vision of Isaiah, who was awestruck at encountering the Almighty in the temple: “Woe is me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips; and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts” (Isa. 6:5).
See 214 (Isaiah’s vision).
