Jeremiah 13:20-22
Modern English Version
20 Lift up your eyes and see
those who come from the north.
Where is the flock that was given to you,
your beautiful flock?
21 What will you say when He appoints over you
those you yourself had taught to be companions to you?
Shall not sorrows take hold of you,
as a woman in labor?
22 And if you say in your heart,
“Why have these things come upon me?”
for the greatness of your iniquity
your skirts have been removed
and your heels made bare.
Jeremiah 13:20-22
New International Version
20 Look up and see
those who are coming from the north.(A)
Where is the flock(B) that was entrusted to you,
the sheep of which you boasted?
21 What will you say when the Lord sets over you
those you cultivated as your special allies?(C)
Will not pain grip you
like that of a woman in labor?(D)
22 And if you ask yourself,
“Why has this happened to me?”(E)—
it is because of your many sins(F)
that your skirts have been torn off(G)
and your body mistreated.(H)
