Contemporary English Version
Jeremiah 10:21-23
Contemporary English Version
21 But I told them,
“Our leaders were stupid failures,
because they refused
to listen to the Lord.
And so we've been scattered
like sheep.
22 “Sounds of destruction
rumble from the north
like distant thunder.
Soon our towns will be ruins
where only jackals[a] live.”
Jeremiah Prays
23 I know, Lord, that we humans
are not in control
of our own lives.
