Jeremiah 22:20-23
Christian Standard Bible
20 Go up to Lebanon and cry out;
raise your voice in Bashan;
cry out from Abarim,(A)
for all your lovers[a] have been crushed.(B)
21 I spoke to you when you were secure.
You said, “I will not listen.”
This has been your way since youth;(C)
indeed, you have never listened to me.
22 The wind will take charge of[b] all your shepherds,
and your lovers will go into captivity.
Then you will be ashamed and humiliated(D)
because of all your evil.
23 You residents of Lebanon,
nestled among the cedars,
how you will groan[c] when pains come on you,
agony like a woman in labor.(E)
