18 This is what the Lord says:
    “At this time I will ·throw [L sling] out the people who live in this land.
I will bring ·trouble [distress] to them
    so that they may be ·captured [L squeezed].”

19 ·How terrible it will be for me [Woe to me] because of my ·injury [fracture].
    My wound ·cannot be healed [is severe].
Yet I told myself,
    “This is my ·sickness [or punishment]; I must ·suffer through [endure] it.”
20 My tent is ·ruined [destroyed; desolated],
    and all its ropes are broken.
My children have gone away and left me.
    No one is left to ·put up [stretch out] my tent again
    or to set up ·a shelter for me [L my curtains].
