Jeremiah 4:17-19

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁷ “They have surrounded her as the watchmen of the field, because she has provoked Me to wrath,” says the LORD.

¹⁸ “Your ways and your inventions have procured these things for yourself. Such is your wickedness. Therefore, it shall be bitter. Therefore, it shall pierce to your heart.”

¹⁹ My belly! My belly! I am pained, even at the very heart! My heart is troubled within me. I cannot be still! For my soul has heard the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of the battle.
