1-2 The Lord God of Israel said, “Jeremiah, get a scroll and write down everything I have told you.
3 Someday I will let my people from both Israel and Judah return to the land I gave their ancestors.”
4-5 Then the Lord told me to say to Israel and Judah:Screams of terror are heard,with no word of peace.
6 Can men give birth?Then why do I see themlooking so paleand clutching their stomachslike women in labor?
