Jeremiah 8:17-22

8:17

For, behold, I will send
<07971> (8764)

serpents
<05175>_,

cockatrices
<06848>_,

among you, which [will] not [be] charmed
<03908>_,

and they shall bite
<05391> (8765)

you, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

8:18

[When] I would comfort
<04010>

myself against sorrow
<03015>_,

my heart
<03820>

[is] faint
<01742>

in me. {in: Heb. upon}

8:19

Behold the voice
<06963>

of the cry
<07775>

of the daughter
<01323>

of my people
<05971>

because of them that dwell in a far
<04801>

country
<0776>_:

[Is] not the LORD
<03068>

in Zion
<06726>_?

[is] not her king
<04428>

in her? Why have they provoked me to anger
<03707> (8689)

with their graven images
<06456>_,

[and] with strange
<05236>

vanities
<01892>_?

{them...: Heb. the country of them that are far off}

8:20

The harvest
<07105>

is past
<05674> (8804)_,

the summer
<07019>

is ended
<03615> (8804)_,

and we are not saved
<03467> (8738)_.

8:21

For the hurt
<07667>

of the daughter
<01323>

of my people
<05971>

am I hurt
<07665> (8717)_;

I am black
<06937> (8804)_;

astonishment
<08047>

hath taken hold
<02388> (8689)

on me.

8:22

[Is there] no balm
<06875>

in Gilead
<01568>_;

[is there] no physician
<07495> (8802)

there? why then
<03588>

is not the health
<0724>

of the daughter
<01323>

of my people
<05971>

recovered
<05927> (8804)_?

{recovered: Heb. gone up?}
