Jeremiah 10:17-19

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁷Your enemies are all around
and they are ready to attack you.
So get all your things together.
Prepare to leave your country.

¹⁸This is what the Lord says:

‘I will now throw out the people who live in this land.
I will bring much trouble to them,
and they will be in pain.’

¹⁹‘A terrible thing has happened to us!^[a]
We have received a very bad wound.
We thought, “We are very ill,
but one day we will get better.”

10:19 These are probably the words of Jeremiah. Or they may be the words of Jerusalem's people.
