Jeremiah 8:18-20

EasyEnglish Bible

‘I am very sad and upset.
    I will never get better again.
¹⁹ Listen to my dear people!
    They are calling out for help everywhere in the land.
They are saying, “Is the Lord still with us in Zion?
    Is he still there to rule us as our King?” ’

‘They worship images of false gods.
    and useless foreign idols.
That has made me very angry.’

‘We have taken in all our crops from the fields.
    The summer has finished.
And still nobody has rescued us.’
