katapi HOME Jeremiah 4:19-22 - Jeremiah's sorrow for his people.  Jr.4.19-22

4 19 My anguish, my anguish! I writhe in pain!
Oh, the walls of my heart!
My heart is beating wildly;
I cannot keep silent;
for I hear the sound of the trumpet,
the alarm of war.
4 20 Disaster follows hard on disaster,
the whole land is laid waste.
Suddenly my tents are destroyed,
my curtains in a moment.
4 21 How long must I see the standard,
and hear the sound of the trumpet?
4 22 "For my people are foolish,
they know me not;
they are stupid children,
they have no understanding.
They are skilled in doing evil,
but how to do good they know not."
