Jeremiah 10:17-22

New International Version

¹⁹ Woe to me because of my injury!
    My wound^(D) is incurable!
Yet I said to myself,
    “This is my sickness, and I must endure^(E) it.”
²⁰ My tent^(F) is destroyed;
    all its ropes are snapped.
My children are gone from me and are no more;^(G)
    no one is left now to pitch my tent
    or to set up my shelter.
²¹ The shepherds^(H) are senseless^(I)
    and do not inquire of the Lord;^(J)
so they do not prosper^(K)
    and all their flock is scattered.^(L)
22 Listen! The report is coming—
    a great commotion from the land of the north!^(M)
It will make the towns of Judah desolate,^(N)
    a haunt of jackals.^(O)
