Jeremiah 4:18-20 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

18. “People of Judah,your hearts will be in pain,but it's your own faultthat you will be punished.”

19. I can't stand the pain!My heart pounds,as I twist and turn in agony.I hear the signal trumpetand the battle cry of the enemy,and I cannot be silent.

20. I see the enemy defeating ustime after time,leaving everything in ruins.Even my own homeis destroyed in a moment.
