Jeremiah 22:20-23
English Standard Version
20 “Go up to Lebanon, and cry out,
and lift up your voice in Bashan;
cry out from (A)Abarim,
for all (B)your lovers are destroyed.
21 I spoke to you in your prosperity,
but you said, ‘I will not listen.’
(C)This has been your way from (D)your youth,
that you have not obeyed my voice.
22 (E)The wind shall shepherd all your shepherds,
and (F)your lovers shall go into captivity;
(G)then you will be ashamed and confounded
because of all your evil.
23 O inhabitant of (H)Lebanon,
nested among the cedars,
how you will be pitied when pangs come upon you,
(I)pain as of a woman in labor!”

and lift up your voice in Bashan;
cry from Ab′arim,
for all your lovers are destroyed.
21 I spoke to you in your prosperity,
but you said, ‘I will not listen.’
This has been your way from your youth,
that you have not obeyed my voice.

and your lovers shall go into captivity;
then you will be ashamed and confounded
because of all your wickedness.
23 O inhabitant of Lebanon,

how you will groan[a] when pangs come upon you,
pain as of a woman in travail!”
