Jeremiah 13:15-17
New Living Translation
A Warning against Pride
15 Listen and pay attention!
Do not be arrogant, for the Lord has spoken.
16 Give glory to the Lord your God
before it is too late.
Acknowledge him before he brings darkness upon you,
causing you to stumble and fall on the darkening mountains.
For then, when you look for light,
you will find only terrible darkness and gloom.
17 And if you still refuse to listen,
I will weep alone because of your pride.
My eyes will overflow with tears,
because the Lord’s flock will be led away into exile.

Jeremiah 13:15-17
Legacy Standard Bible
15 Listen and give ear, do not be (A)haughty,
For Yahweh has spoken.
16 (B)Give glory to Yahweh your God,
Before He brings (C)darkness
And before your (D)feet [a]stumble
On the dusky mountains;
And while you are hoping for light,
He makes it into the (E)shadow of death
And turns it into dense gloom.
17 But (F)if you will not listen to it,
My soul will (G)cry in secret for such pride;
And my eyes will bitterly weep
And flow down with tears
Because the (H)flock of Yahweh has been taken captive.
