Jeremiah 13:19-21
Living Bible
19 The cities of the Negeb to the south of Jerusalem have closed their gates against the enemy. They must defend themselves, for Jerusalem cannot help;[a] and all Judah shall be taken away as slaves.
20 See the armies marching from the north! Where is your flock, Jerusalem,[b] your beautiful flock he gave you to take care of? 21 How will you feel when he sets your allies over you as your rulers? You will writhe in pain like a woman having a child.

- Jeremiah 13:19 for Jerusalem cannot help, literally, “for the cities are closed and none can open them.” Perhaps the meaning is that they are permanently abandoned.
- Jeremiah 13:20 Jerusalem, implied.
