Jeremiah 4:17-19
Revised Standard Version

17 Like keepers of a field are they against her round about,
    because she has rebelled against me,
                says the Lord.
18 Your ways and your doings
    have brought this upon you.
This is your doom, and it is bitter;
    it has reached your very heart.”

Sorrow for a Doomed Nation

19 My anguish, my anguish! I writhe in pain!
    Oh, the walls of my heart!
My heart is beating wildly;
    I cannot keep silent;
for I hear the sound of the trumpet,
    the alarm of war.
