Jeremiah 13:17-19

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁷ If you will not listen,
I will cry for you in secret because of your arrogance.
My eyes will weep bitterly and overflow with tears,
because the Lord’s flock will be taken captive.
¹⁸ Say to the king and to the queen mother,
“Come down from your thrones,
because your crowns will fall from your heads.”^[a]
19 The cities of the Negev are under siege,
and no one can get through to them.
All of Judah will be taken into exile.
They will be carried away completely.
