Authorized (King James) Version
Jeremiah 5:17-19
Authorized (King James) Version
17 And they shall eat up thine harvest, and thy bread,
which thy sons and thy daughters should eat:
they shall eat up thy flocks and thine herds:
they shall eat up thy vines and thy fig trees:
they shall impoverish thy fenced cities,
wherein thou trustedst, with the sword.
18 Nevertheless in those days, saith the Lord, I will not make a full end with you.
19 And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say, Wherefore doeth the Lord our God all these things unto us? then shalt thou answer them, Like as ye have forsaken me, and served strange gods in your land, so shall ye serve strangers in a land that is not yours.

Jeremiah 5:17-19
New International Version
17 They will devour(A) your harvests and food,
devour(B) your sons and daughters;
they will devour(C) your flocks and herds,
devour your vines and fig trees.(D)
With the sword(E) they will destroy
the fortified cities(F) in which you trust.(G)
18 “Yet even in those days,” declares the Lord, “I will not destroy(H) you completely. 19 And when the people ask,(I) ‘Why has the Lord our God done all this to us?’ you will tell them, ‘As you have forsaken me and served foreign gods(J) in your own land, so now you will serve foreigners(K) in a land not your own.’
