The Prophet Mourns for the People

18 My grief is beyond healing,[a]
    my heart is sick within me.
19 Hark, the cry of the daughter of my people
    from the length and breadth of the land:
“Is the Lord not in Zion?
    Is her King not in her?”
“Why have they provoked me to anger with their graven images,
    and with their foreign idols?”
20 “The harvest is past, the summer is ended,
    and we are not saved.”
