Jeremiah 14:17-19

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹⁷ “You will say this word to them,
‘^(A)Let my eyes flow down with tears night and day,
And let them not cease;
For the virgin ^(B)daughter of my people has been crushed with a mighty blow,
With a sorely ^(C)infected wound.
¹⁸ ‘If I ^(D)go out to the country,
Behold, those ^[a]slain with the sword!
Or if I enter the city,
Behold, diseases of famine!
For ^(E)both prophet and priest
Have ^[b]gone roving about in the land that they do not know.’”
