Jeremiah 9:9-11
New Century Version
9 Shouldn’t I punish the people for doing this?” says the Lord.
“Shouldn’t I give a nation like this the punishment it deserves?”
10 I, Jeremiah, will cry loudly for the mountains
and sing a funeral song for the empty fields.
They are empty, and no one passes through.
The mooing of cattle cannot be heard.
The birds have flown away,
and the animals are gone.
11 “I, the Lord, will make the city of Jerusalem a heap of ruins,
a home for wild dogs.
I will destroy the cities of Judah
so no one can live there.”
Jeremiah 9:9-11
New International Version
9 Should I not punish them for this?”
declares the Lord.
“Should I not avenge(A) myself
on such a nation as this?”
