Jeremiah 14:16-18
Complete Jewish Bible
Jeremiah 14:16-18
Complete Jewish Bible
16 And the people to whom they are prophesying will be thrown out into the streets of Yerushalayim because of the famine and war, with no one to bury them — them, or their wives, or their sons, or their daughters — because I will pour their own wickedness out upon them. 17 You are to give them this message:
‘Let my eyes stream with tears
night and day, unceasingly,
because the virgin daughter of my people
has been severely broken;
she has been dealt a crushing blow.
18 If I go out in the field,
I see those slain with the sword.
If I enter the city,
I see the victims of famine.
Meanwhile, prophets and cohanim
ply their trade in the land, knowing nothing.’”

New International Version
16 And the people they are prophesying to will be thrown out into the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and sword. There will be no one to bury(A) them, their wives, their sons and their daughters.(B) I will pour out on them the calamity they deserve.(C)
17 “Speak this word to them:
“‘Let my eyes overflow with tears(D)
night and day without ceasing;
for the Virgin(E) Daughter, my people,
has suffered a grievous wound,
a crushing blow.(F)
18 If I go into the country,
I see those slain by the sword;
if I go into the city,
I see the ravages of famine.(G)
Both prophet and priest
have gone to a land they know not.(H)’”
