Jeremiah 8:17-19
New International Version - UK
17 ‘See, I will send venomous snakes among you,
vipers that cannot be charmed,
and they will bite you,’
declares the Lord.
18 You who are my Comforter[a] in sorrow,
my heart is faint within me.
19 Listen to the cry of my people
from a land far away:
‘Is the Lord not in Zion?
Is her King no longer there?’
‘Why have they aroused my anger with their images,
with their worthless foreign idols?’
