Jeremiah 14:17-19
English Standard Version
17 “You shall say to them this word:
(A)‘Let my eyes run down with tears night and day,
and let them not cease,
for the virgin (B)daughter of my people is shattered with a great wound,
(C)with a very grievous blow.
18 (D)If I go out into the field,
behold, those pierced by the sword!
(E)And if I enter the city,
behold, the diseases of famine!
(F)For both prophet and priest ply their trade through the land
and have no knowledge.’”
19 (G)Have you utterly rejected Judah?
Does your soul loathe Zion?
Why have you struck us down
(H)so that there is no healing for us?
(I)We looked for peace, but no good came;
(J)for a time of healing, but behold, terror.
