Jeremiah 13:20-21
New American Standard Bible
20 “Raise your eyes and see
Those coming (A)from the north.
Where is the (B)flock that was given you,
Your beautiful sheep?
21 What will you say when He appoints over you—
And you yourself had taught them—
Former (C)companions to be head over you?
Will (D)sharp pains not take hold of you
Like a woman in childbirth?
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?
