17 “For behold, I will send serpents among you,
Vipers which cannot be acharmed,
And they shall bite you,” says the Lord. 

The Prophet Mourns for the People

18 I would comfort myself in sorrow;
My heart is faint in me.
19 Listen! The voice,
The cry of the daughter of my people
From aa far country:
“Is not the Lord in Zion?
Is not her King in her?”
“Why have they provoked Me to anger
With their carved images—
With foreign idols?” 
20 “The harvest is past,
The summer is ended,
And we are not saved!”
21 aFor the hurt of the daughter of my people I am hurt.
I am bmourning;
Astonishment has taken hold of me.

Jeremiah 8:19

Why - As if God should seem to reply; let them not think it strange, seeing they have turned their backs upon me, and trusted to idols.
