Jeremiah 4:19-26

JuliaSmith(i) 19 My bowels, my bowels! I shall afflict the walls of my heart; my heart made commotion to me; I shall not be silent, for the voice of the trumpet thou didst hear, O my soul, the tumult of war. 20 Breaking upon breaking was called; for all the land was laid waste: suddenly were my tents laid waste, my curtains in a moment 21 How long shall I see the signal, shall I hear the voice of the trumpet? 22 For my people are foolish, they knew me not; foolish sons are they and they not understanding; wise are they to do evil, and to do good they knew not 23 I saw the earth, and behold, emptiness and a void; and to the heavens, and no lights. 24 I saw the mountains, and behold them trembling, and all the hills were shaken. 25 I saw, and behold, no man, and all the birds of the heavens fled away. 26 I saw, and behold, Carmel a desert, and all its cities were broken down from the face of Jehovah, from the face of the heat of his anger.
