Jeremiah 13:20-21
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
20 Lift up your eyes and see
those who come from the north.
Where is the flock that was given you,
your beautiful flock?(A)
21 What will you say when they set as head over you
those whom you have trained
to be your allies?
Will not pangs seize you
like those of a woman in labor?(B)
Jeremiah 13:20-21
Common English Bible
20 Lift up your eyes
and see who is approaching from the north.
Where is the flock entrusted to you,
your beautiful flock?
21 What will you say when he appoints someone as head over you:
your defenders, your trusted allies?[a]
Won’t pain grip you
like that of a woman in labor?
