Jeremiah 4:17-19

Modern English Version

¹⁷ As watchmen of a field, they are against her all around,
    because she has been rebellious against Me,
    says the Lord.
¹⁸ Your way and your deeds
    have procured these things to you.
This is your wickedness.
    How bitter it is!
    How it touches your heart!”

¹⁹ My soul, my soul!
    I am pained at my very heart.
My heart makes a noise in me.
    I cannot hold my peace,
because you have heard, O my soul,
    the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of war.
