Jeremiah 8:18-20
1599 Geneva Bible
18 I would have [a]comforted myself against sorrow, but mine heart is heavy in me.
19 Behold, the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people for fear of them of a far country, Is not the Lord in Zion? is not her king in her? Why [b]have they provoked me to anger with their graven images, and with the vanities of a strange god?
20 The [c]harvest is past, the Summer is ended, and we are not holpen.
