18mortally with the pain of your distressed heart.
19Behold, there is a sound of the cry of the daughter of my people from a land afar off: Is not the Lord in Zion? is there not a king there? because they have provoked me with their graven images, and with strange vanities.
— Jeremiah 8:20 —
21For the breach of the daughter of my people I have been saddened: in my perplexity pangs have seized upon me as of a woman in travail.
22And is there no balm in Gilead, or is there no physician there? why has not the healing of the daughter of my people taken place?
