Jeremiah’s Cry

19 Oh, ·how I hurt [my pain/anguish/L innards]! ·How I hurt [My pain/anguish/L innards]!
    ·I am bent over in pain [L My heart writhes].
Oh, the ·torture in [L walls of] my heart!
    My heart is pounding inside me.
    I cannot keep quiet,
because I have heard the sound of the ·trumpet [ram’s horn].
    I have heard the shouts of war.
20 Disaster after disaster is reported;
    the whole country has been ·destroyed [devastated].
My tents are ·destroyed [devastated] ·in only a moment [suddenly].
    My curtains are torn down quickly.
21 How long must I look at the war flag?
    How long must I listen to the ·war trumpet [L sound of the ram’s horn]?
