The speaker’s lament, “My anguish, my anguish!”
"슬프고 아프다" 하는 말하는 이의 애통
Jeremiah 4:19–22: the speaker (“I”) says, “My anguish, my anguish! I am pained at my very heart! My heart trembles within me. I can’t hold my peace, because you have heard, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of war. Destruction on destruction is decreed, for the whole land is laid waste. Suddenly my tents are destroyed, and my curtains gone in a moment. How long will I see the standard and hear the sound of the trumpet?” The text goes on, “For my people are foolish. They don’t know me. They are foolish children, and they have no understanding. They are skillful in doing evil, but they don’t know how to do good.” No verse of 4:19–22 names the speaker; WEB sets quotation marks around 4:22 only. The Korean Revised Version reads at 4:20 패망에 패망이 연속하여 (destruction follows on destruction) where WEB reads “Destruction on destruction is decreed”.
