Jeremiah 23:7-9
Common English Bible
7 So the time is coming, declares the Lord, when no one will say, “As the Lord lives who brought up the Israelites from the land of Egypt.” 8 Instead, they will say, “As the Lord lives who brought up the descendants of the people of Israel from the land of the north and from all the lands where he[a] has banished them so that they can live in their own land.”
Oracles against the prophets

My heart inside me is broken;
my body aches.[b]
I stagger like a drunk
who has had too much wine to drink,
because of the Lord
and because of God’s holy words.
