Jeremiah 4:29-31
Revised Standard Version
29 At the noise of horseman and archer
every city takes to flight;
they enter thickets; they climb among rocks;
all the cities are forsaken,
and no man dwells in them.
30 And you, O desolate one,
what do you mean that you dress in scarlet,
that you deck yourself with ornaments of gold,
that you enlarge your eyes with paint?
In vain you beautify yourself.
Your lovers despise you;
they seek your life.
31 For I heard a cry as of a woman in travail,
anguish as of one bringing forth her first child,
the cry of the daughter of Zion gasping for breath,
stretching out her hands,
“Woe is me! I am fainting before murderers.”
Jeremiah 4:29-31
New International Version
29 At the sound of horsemen and archers(A)
every town takes to flight.(B)
Some go into the thickets;
some climb up among the rocks.(C)
All the towns are deserted;(D)
no one lives in them.
