Jeremiah 22:20-22

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁰ ‘Go up to Lebanon and cry aloud.^[a]
    Shout loudly in Bashan.
    Cry aloud from the mountains of Moab.
The nations that were your lovers
    have lost their power.
²¹ When you were feeling strong and safe,
    I warned you that this would happen.
But you said, “I refuse to listen to you.”
You have been like that since you were young.
    You have never obeyed me.
²² Your leaders will all disappear,
    as if a strong wind had blown them away.
Enemies will take your friends away as prisoners.
Then you will feel very ashamed,
    because of all the wicked things that you have done.
