The Scriptures 1998

Jeremiah 8:18-22 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

18. When in grief I would seek comfort; my heart is sick within me.

19. Observe! The voice, the cry of the daughter of my people from a distant land, “Is יהוה not in Tsiyon? Is her Sovereign not in her?” “Why have they provoked Me with their carved images, and with foreign worthlessnesses?”

20. “The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we have not been saved!”

21. For the breach of the daughter of my people I have been broken. I have grown sad; astonishment has seized me.

22. Is there no balm in Gil‛aḏ, is there no healer there? Why has the healing of the daughter of my people not come?
