Jeremiah 13:19-21
Expanded Bible

19 The cities of ·southern Judah [L the Negev] are ·locked [shut] up,
    and no one can open them.
All Judah will be ·taken as captives to a foreign land [exiled; C to Babylon];
    they will ·be carried away [exiled] completely [C the exile in 597 bc was a precursor to the more complete one in 586 bc].

20 Look up and see [C addressed to queen mother]
    the people coming from the north [C the Babylonian army].
Where is the flock ·God gave you to care for [L given to you],
    ·the flock you bragged about [L your splendid flock; C the people of Judah]?
21 What will you say when ·they [or God] appoint as your ·heads [rulers]
    those you had thought were your ·friends [allies]?
Won’t ·you have much pain and trouble [L pain seize you],
    like a woman giving birth to a baby [4:31; 6:24; 22:23; 30:6; 48:41; 49:22, 24; 50:43]?

19 The cities in the Negev will be shut up,
    and there will be no one to open them.
All Judah(A) will be carried into exile,
    carried completely away.

20 Look up and see
    those who are coming from the north.(B)
Where is the flock(C) that was entrusted to you,
    the sheep of which you boasted?
21 What will you say when the Lord sets over you
    those you cultivated as your special allies?(D)
Will not pain grip you
    like that of a woman in labor?(E)
