Jeremiah 8:19-21

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁹ The cry from my dear people comes from a distant land:
“Isn’t the Lord in Zion?
Isn’t Zion’s king still there?”
They make me furious with their idols, with their foreign gods.

²⁰ The harvest is past,
the summer has ended,
and we haven’t been saved.

²¹ I am crushed because my dear people have been crushed.
I mourn; terror grips me.
