20 My tabernacle is devastated,
    and all my cords are broken.
My sons have gone from me and are no more.
    There is no one to spread my tent anymore,
    and to set up my curtains.

    and a great commotion out of the north country,
to make the cities of Judah desolate
    and a den of jackals.
