Young's Literal Translation
Jeremiah 14:16-18
Young's Literal Translation
16 And the people to whom they are prophesying, Are cast into out-places of Jerusalem, Because of the famine, and of the sword, And they have none burying them, Them, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, And I have poured out upon them this evil.
17 And thou hast said unto them this word: Tears come down mine eyes night and day, And they do not cease, For, [with] a great breach, Broken hath been the virgin daughter of my people, A very grievous stroke.
18 If I have gone forth to the field, Then, lo, the pierced of the sword! And if I have entered the city, Then, lo, the diseased of famine! For both prophet and priest have gone up and down Unto a land that they knew not.

Jeremiah 14:16-18
New International Version
16 And the people they are prophesying to will be thrown out into the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and sword. There will be no one to bury(A) them, their wives, their sons and their daughters.(B) I will pour out on them the calamity they deserve.(C)
17 “Speak this word to them:
“‘Let my eyes overflow with tears(D)
night and day without ceasing;
for the Virgin(E) Daughter, my people,
has suffered a grievous wound,
a crushing blow.(F)
18 If I go into the country,
I see those slain by the sword;
if I go into the city,
I see the ravages of famine.(G)
Both prophet and priest
have gone to a land they know not.(H)’”
