For He is the Maker of all things,
And bIsrael is the tribe of His inheritance;
cThe Lord of hosts is His name.
The Coming Captivity of Judah
O inhabitant of the fortress!
“Behold, I will athrow out at this time
The inhabitants of the land,
And will distress them,
bThat they may find it so.”
My wound is severe.
But I say, b“Truly this is an infirmity,
And cI must bear it.”
And all my cords are broken;
My children have gone from me,
And they are bno more.
There is no one to pitch my tent anymore,
Or set up my curtains.
And have not sought the Lord;
Therefore they shall not prosper,
And all their flocks shall be ascattered.
And a great commotion out of the anorth country,
To make the cities of Judah desolate, a bden of jackals.
It is not in man who walks to direct his own steps.
And on the families who do not call on Your name;
For they have eaten up Jacob,
cDevoured him and consumed him,
And made his dwelling place desolate.
| << Jeremiah 10:16 | Jeremiah 10:18 >> |
