19 As (A)often as it passes through, it will [a]seize you;
For (B)morning after morning it will pass through, anytime during the day or night,
And it will be [b]sheer (C)terror to understand [c]what it means.”

Grief over Judah’s Devastation

19 (A)My [a]soul, my [b]soul! I am in anguish! [c]Oh, my heart!
My (B)heart is pounding in me;
I cannot keep silent,
Because, [d]my soul, you have heard
The (C)sound of the trumpet,
The alarm of war.
20 (D)Disaster upon disaster is proclaimed,
For the (E)whole land is devastated;
Suddenly my (F)tents are devastated,
And my curtains in an instant.
21 How long must I see the flag
And hear the sound of the trumpet?
