Jeremiah 13:16-18
Modern English Version
16 Give glory to the Lord your God,
before He causes darkness
and before your feet stumble
on the dark mountains,
and while you look for light,
He turns it into the shadow of death
and makes it gross darkness.
17 But if you will not listen to it,
my soul will weep in secret places
for your pride;
and my eyes will weep sorely
and run down with tears,
because the flock of the Lord is carried away captive.
18 Say to the king and to the queen mother:
“Humble yourselves, sit down,
for your beautiful crown
shall come down from your head.”
Jeremiah 13:16-18
New International Version
16 Give glory(A) to the Lord your God
before he brings the darkness,
before your feet stumble(B)
on the darkening hills.
You hope for light,
but he will turn it to utter darkness
and change it to deep gloom.(C)
17 If you do not listen,(D)
I will weep in secret
because of your pride;
my eyes will weep bitterly,
overflowing with tears,(E)
because the Lord’s flock(F) will be taken captive.(G)
