Jeremiah 8:20-22

EasyEnglish Bible

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

²¹ I am very upset
    because my dear people have so much pain.
I weep and I cry, as if a friend had died.
²² Surely there is a medicine in Gilead.
    There is a doctor there who can make my dear people better.
But my people are still ill.
    Why are they not better?
