Jeremiah 8:17-19
Revised Standard Version
17 For behold, I am sending among you serpents,
adders which cannot be charmed,
and they shall bite you,”
says the Lord.
The Prophet Mourns for the People
18 My grief is beyond healing,[a]
my heart is sick within me.
19 Hark, the cry of the daughter of my people
from the length and breadth of the land:
“Is the Lord not in Zion?
Is her King not in her?”
“Why have they provoked me to anger with their graven images,
and with their foreign idols?”
