Jeremiah 4:18-20
Evangelical Heritage Version
Jeremiah 4:18-20
Evangelical Heritage Version
18 The way you live and the things you did have brought this on you.
This is your punishment.
It is bitter!
It strikes your heart!
Jeremiah’s Grief
19 My agony! My agony![a]
I am writhing in pain.
Oh my heart!
The walls of my heart are quivering!
I cannot keep silent,
because I hear the sound of the ram’s horn.
It is the signal for war!
20 One disaster after another is announced.
All the land is ruined.
Suddenly my tents are destroyed.
My tent curtains are torn apart in an instant.
