Jeremiah 22:21-23
1599 Geneva Bible
21 I spake unto thee when thou wast in prosperity: but thou saidest, I will not hear, this hath been thy manner from thy youth, that thou wouldest not obey my voice.
22 The wind shall feed all thy pastors, [a]and thy lovers shall go into captivity: and then shalt thou be ashamed and confounded of all thy wickedness.
23 Thou that dwellest in Lebanon, and makest thy nest in the [b]cedars, how beautiful shalt thou be when sorrows come upon thee, as the sorrow of a woman in travail?
