King James Version
Jeremiah 8:13-15
King James Version
13 I will surely consume them, saith the Lord: there shall be no grapes on the vine, nor figs on the fig tree, and the leaf shall fade; and the things that I have given them shall pass away from them.
14 Why do we sit still? assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the defenced cities, and let us be silent there: for the Lord our God hath put us to silence, and given us water of gall to drink, because we have sinned against the Lord.
15 We looked for peace, but no good came; and for a time of health, and behold trouble!

Jeremiah 8:13-15
New International Version
13 “‘I will take away their harvest,
declares the Lord.
There will be no grapes on the vine.(A)
There will be no figs(B) on the tree,
and their leaves will wither.(C)
What I have given them
will be taken(D) from them.[a]’”
14 Why are we sitting here?
Gather together!
Let us flee to the fortified cities(E)
and perish there!
For the Lord our God has doomed us to perish
and given us poisoned water(F) to drink,
because we have sinned(G) against him.
15 We hoped for peace(H)
but no good has come,
for a time of healing
but there is only terror.(I)
