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.

Exile Threatened
15 Hear and give ear; do not be haughty,
for the Lord has spoken.(A)
16 Give glory to the Lord your God
before he brings darkness
and before your feet stumble
on the mountains at twilight;
while you look for light,
he turns it into gloom
and makes it deep darkness.(B)
17 But if you will not listen,
my soul will weep in secret for your pride;
my eyes will weep bitterly and run down with tears
because the Lord’s flock has been taken captive.(C)
