Jeremiah 8:20

8:20 “They cry, ‘Harvest time has come and gone, and the summer is over,

and still we have not been delivered.’

Jeremiah 4:31

4:31 In fact, I hear a cry like that of a woman in labor,

a cry of anguish like that of a woman giving birth to her first baby.

It is the cry of Daughter Zion gasping for breath,

reaching out for help, saying, “I am done in!

My life is ebbing away before these murderers!”
