Jeremiah 8:19 BBE

¹⁷  See, I will send snakes and poison-snakes among you, against which the wonder-worker has no power; and they will give you wounds which may not be made well, says the Lord.

¹⁸  Sorrow has come on me! my heart in me is feeble.

¹⁹  The voice of the cry of the daughter of my people comes from a far land: Is the Lord not in Zion? is not her King in her? Why have they made me angry with their images and their strange gods which are no gods?

²⁰  The grain-cutting is past, the summer is ended, and no salvation has come to us.

²¹  For the destruction of the daughter of my people I am broken: I am dressed in the clothing of grief; fear has taken me in its grip.
