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.
| << Jeremiah 10:21 | Jeremiah 10:23 >> |
