Jeremiah 13:18

A Message For The King And The Queen Mother

¹⁷ And if ye will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret places for your pride; and mine eye shall weep sore, and run down with tears, because Jehovah's flock is gone into captivity. ¹⁸ Say unto the king and to the queen: Humble yourselves, sit down low; for from your heads shall come down the crown of your magnificence. ¹⁹ The cities of the south are shut up, and there is none to open them; all Judah is carried away captive: it is wholly carried away captive.
