Jeremiah 13:15-17

New Catholic Bible

¹⁵ Listen carefully and suppress your pride,
    for it is the Lord who speaks.
¹⁶ Give glory to the Lord, your God,
    before the darkness descends,
before your feet stumble
    on the mountains at twilight,
before the light you hope for
    will gradually turn to gloom
    and then into thick darkness.
¹⁷ If your pride does not allow you to listen,
    I will weep in secret for you.
My eyes will be filled with tears
    because the Lord’s flock is being led into captivity.
