International Standard Version
Jeremiah 8:19-21
International Standard Version
19 Listen! My people[a] cry
from a distant land:
“Is the Lord no longer in Zion?
Is her king no longer there?”
The Lord Speaks
“Why did they provoke me to anger with their images,
with their worthless foreign gods?”
The People Speak
20 The harvest is past,
the summer has ended,
and we haven’t been delivered.
The Prophet Mourns
21 Because my people[b] are crushed, I’m crushed.
I mourn, and dismay overwhelms me.
