Jeremiah 8:18-22

18You who are my Comforter The meaning of the Hebrew for this word is uncertain. in sorrow, my heart is faint within me.

19Listen to the cry of my people from a land far away: “Is the LORD not in Zion? Is her King no longer there?” “Why have they aroused my anger with their images, with their worthless foreign idols?”

20“The harvest is past, the summer has ended, and we are not saved.”

21Since my people are crushed, I am crushed; I mourn, and horror grips me. 22Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then is there no healing for the wound of my people?
