woe = misery resulting from affliction
offense = the action of attacking; failure to show regard for others

Lincoln was feeling bad for humanity because of it's wars and disregard for its own diversity. He feels that offenses are part of such a diverse life, however, anyone who intentionally commits an offense against an other, ought be very sorry.
