Jeremiah 8:18-20
New Century Version
Jeremiah’s Sadness
18 God, you are my comfort when I am very sad
and when I am afraid.
19 Listen to the sound of my people.
They cry from a faraway land:
“Isn’t the Lord still in Jerusalem?
Isn’t Jerusalem’s king still there?”
But God says, “Why did the people make me angry by worshiping idols,
useless foreign idols?”
20 And the people say, “Harvest time is over;
summer has ended,
and we have not been saved.”
Jeremiah 8:18-20
New International Version
18 You who are my Comforter[a] in sorrow,
my heart is faint(A) within me.
19 Listen to the cry of my people
from a land far away:(B)
“Is the Lord not in Zion?
Is her King(C) no longer there?”
20 “The harvest is past,
the summer has ended,
and we are not saved.”
