15 Therefore thus says Yahweh concerning the prophets who are prophesying in My name, although it was not I who sent them—yet they keep saying, ‘There will be no sword or famine in this land’—(A)by that sword and famine those prophets shall [a]meet their end! 16 The people also to whom they are prophesying will be (B)thrown out into the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; and there will be no one to (C)bury them—neither them, nor their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters—for I will (D)pour out their own evil on them.

17 And you will say this word to them,
(E)Let my eyes flow down with tears night and day,
And let them not cease,
For the virgin (F)daughter of my people has been shattered with a mighty shattering,
With a sorely (G)sick wound.
