Jeremiah 4:18-21
English Standard Version
Jeremiah 4:18-21
English Standard Version
18 Your ways and your deeds
have brought this upon you.
This is your doom, and (A)it is bitter;
it has reached your very heart.”
Anguish over Judah's Desolation
19 (B)My anguish, my anguish! I writhe in pain!
Oh the walls of my heart!
My heart is beating wildly;
I cannot keep silent,
for I hear the sound of the trumpet,
the alarm of war.
20 (C)Crash follows hard on crash;
the whole land is laid waste.
(D)Suddenly my tents are laid waste,
my curtains in a moment.
21 How long must I see the standard
and hear the sound of the trumpet?

have brought this on you.(B)
This is your punishment.
How bitter(C) it is!
How it pierces to the heart!”
19 Oh, my anguish, my anguish!(D)
I writhe in pain.(E)
Oh, the agony of my heart!
My heart pounds(F) within me,
I cannot keep silent.(G)
For I have heard the sound of the trumpet;(H)
I have heard the battle cry.(I)
20 Disaster follows disaster;(J)
the whole land lies in ruins.(K)
In an instant my tents(L) are destroyed,
my shelter in a moment.
21 How long must I see the battle standard(M)
and hear the sound of the trumpet?(N)
