²⁰ Look up and see
    those who are coming from the north.^(A)
Where is the flock^(B) that was entrusted to you,
    the sheep of which you boasted?
²¹ What will you say when the Lord sets over you
    those you cultivated as your special allies?^(C)
Will not pain grip you
    like that of a woman in labor?^(D)
22 And if you ask yourself,
    “Why has this happened to me?”^(E)—
it is because of your many sins^(F)
    that your skirts have been torn off^(G)
    and your body mistreated.^(H)
