Jeremiah 22:20-22

Contemporary English Version

²⁰ People of Jerusalem,
the nations^[a] you trusted
    have been crushed.
Go to Lebanon and weep;
cry in the land of Bashan
    and in Moab.
²¹ When times were good,
    I warned you.
But you ignored me,
just as you have done
    since Israel was young.
²² Now you will be disgraced
    because of your sins.
Your leaders will be swept away
    by the wind,
and the nations you trusted
will be captured and dragged
    to a foreign country.
