¹⁷ Therefore the Lord ^(A)will have no joy in their young men,
Nor have mercy on their fatherless and widows;
For everyone is a hypocrite and an evildoer,
And every mouth speaks ^[a]folly.

¹¹ Therefore I am full of the fury of the Lord.
^(A)I am weary of holding it in.
“I will pour it out ^(B)on the children outside,
And on the assembly of young men together;
For even the husband shall be taken with the wife,
The aged with him who is full of days.

²¹ For death has come through our windows,
Has entered our palaces,
To kill off ^(A)the children—^[a]no longer to be outside!
And the young men—^[b]no longer on the streets!
