Jeremiah 8:14-22

14WhyH4100 do we sitH3427 still? Assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the fenced citiesH5892, and let us be silent there: for Jehovah our 1GodH430 hath put us to silence, and givenH8248 us waterH4325 of gall to drinkH8248, because we have sinnedH2398 against Jehovah. 15PeaceH7965 is looked for, and there is no goodH2896; a timeH6256 of healingH4832, and behold, terrorH1205. 16The snorting of his horsesH5483 is heardH8085 from DanH1835: the whole landH776 trembleth at the soundH6963 of the neighing of his steeds, and they comeH935, and devourH398 the landH776, and all it contains, the cityH5892 and those that dwellH3427 therein. 17For behold, I sendH7971 among you serpents, vipers against which there is no charmH3908, and they shall bite you, saith Jehovah. 18My comfort in my sadness! my heartH3820 is faintH1742 in me! 19Behold the voiceH6963 of the cryH7775 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971, from a very far country: Is not Jehovah in ZionH6726? Is not her kingH4428 in her? WhyH4069 have they provokedH3707 me to angerH3707 with their graven images, with foreign vanitiesH1892? 20The harvestH7105 is past, the summerH7019 is endedH3615, and we are not savedH3467. 21— For the breach of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 am I crushed; I go mourningH6937; astonishment hath takenH2388 holdH2388 of me. 22Is there no balmH6875 in GileadH1568? is there no physicianH7495 there? WhyH4069 then is there no dressing applied for the healingH7495 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971?
