Jeremiah 4:18-21

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁸ Your way and your actions
have brought this on you.^(A)
This is your punishment. It is very bitter,
because it has reached your heart!

¹⁹ My anguish, my anguish!^[a] I writhe in agony!
Oh, the pain in^[b] my heart!^(B)
My heart pounds;
I cannot be silent.
For you, my soul,
have heard the sound of the ram’s horn—
the shout of battle.
²⁰ Disaster after disaster^(C) is reported
because the whole land is destroyed.
Suddenly my tents are destroyed,
my tent curtains, in a moment.
²¹ How long must I see the signal flag
and hear the sound of the ram’s horn?
