Jeremiah 13:20-21
World English Bible
20 Lift up your eyes,
and see those who come from the north.
Where is the flock that was given to you,
your beautiful flock?
21 What will you say, when he sets over you as head those whom you have yourself taught to be friends to you?
Won’t sorrows take hold of you, as of a woman in travail?
Jeremiah 13:20-21
International Standard Version
20 “Look up and see those who are coming from the north.
Where is the flock that was given to you—
your beautiful sheep?
21 What will you say when the Lord[a]
appoints over you as your head
those whom you taught to be your allies?[b]
Pain will seize you like that seizing a woman
about to give birth, will it not?
