Jeremiah 8:19-21

International Standard Version

¹⁹Listen! My people^[a] cry
from a distant land:
“Is the Lord no longer in Zion?
Is her king no longer there?”

“Why did they provoke me to anger with their images,
with their worthless foreign gods?”

²⁰The harvest is past,
the summer has ended,
and we haven’t been delivered.

²¹Because my people^[b] are crushed, I’m crushed.
I mourn, and dismay overwhelms me.

Jeremiah 8:19-21

New International Version

¹⁹Listen to the cry of my people
from a land far away:^(A)
“Is the Lord not in Zion?
Is her King^(B) no longer there?”

“Why have they aroused^(C) my anger with their images,
with their worthless^(D) foreign idols?”^(E)

²⁰“The harvest is past,
the summer has ended,
and we are not saved.”

²¹Since my people are crushed,^(F) I am crushed;
I mourn,^(G) and horror grips me.
