Jeremiah 8:19
_ _ The prophet in vision hears the cry of the exiled Jews, wondering that God should have delivered them up to the enemy, seeing that He is Zion’s king, dwelling in her (Micah 3:11). In the latter half of the verse God replies that their own idolatry, not want of faithfulness on His part, is the cause.
_ _ because of them that dwell in a far country — rather, “from a land of distances,” that is, a distant land (Isaiah 39:3). English Version understands the cry to be of the Jews in their own land, because of the enemy coming from their far-off country.
_ _ strange vanities — foreign gods. |

For I have heard a voice as of a woman in travail, [and] the anguish as of her that bringeth forth her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, [that] bewaileth herself, [that] spreadeth her hands, [saying], Woe [is] me now! for my soul is wearied because of murderers.
