The Lord said, “You must obey the Lord, your God. You must do the things he says are right. If you obey all the Lord’s commands and laws, then you will not be sick like the Egyptians. I, the Lord, will not give you any of the sicknesses I gave the Egyptians. I am the Lord. I am the one who makes you well.”
All the people are evil. So the Lord is not happy with the young men. And the Lord will not show mercy to their widows and orphans. {\cf2\super [111]} Why? Because all the people are evil. The people do things that are against God. The people speak lies. So God will continue to be angry with the people. God will continue to punish the people.
“Those people will die a terrible death. No person will cry for those people. No person will bury them. Their bodies will lie on the ground like dung. Those people will die by an enemy’s sword, or they will starve to death. Their dead bodies will be food for the birds of the sky and the wild animals of the earth.”
So make their children starve in a famine. {\cf2\super [154]} \par Let their enemies defeat them with swords.\par Let their wives be without children.\par Let the men from Judah be put to death.\par Make their wives into widows.\par Let the men from Judah be put to death.\par Let the young men be killed in battle.\par
But I (Jeremiah) am full of the Lord’s anger!\par I am tired of holding it in!\par “Pour out the Lord’s anger on the children\par that play in the street.\par Pour out the Lord’s anger on the young men\par that gather together.\par A man and his wife will both be captured.\par All the old people will be captured.\par
No, I will force those people from the north {\cf2\super [17]} to leave your land.\par I will make them go into a dry,\par empty land.\par Some of them will go to the eastern sea.\par Some of them will go to the western sea.\par Those people did such terrible things.\par But they will be like a dead\par and rotting thing.\par There will be such a terrible smell!”\par
