Jeremiah 8:12-14

Lexham English Bible

¹² Were they ashamed, for they had committed a detestable thing?
    What’s worse,^[a] they were not ashamed at all,
and they did not know to feel humiliated.
    Therefore^[b] they will fall among those who fall;
    at the time of their punishment they will stumble,” says Yahweh.
¹³ “I will take away their harvest,”^[c] declares^[d] Yahweh.
“There are no grapes on the vine,
    and there are no figs on the fig tree,
and the leaves wither,
    and what I gave to them passed over them.”’”

¹⁴ Why are we sitting?
    Gather, and let us go into the fortified cities,
and let us perish there,
    for Yahweh our God has caused us to perish,
and has provided drink for us, water of poison,
    because we have sinned against Yahweh.
