Jeremias 8:19
Behold the voice of the daughter my people from a far country: Is not the Lord in Sion, or is not her king in her? why then have they provoked me to wrath with their idols, and strange vanities?

- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Ecce vox clamoris filiæ populi mei de terra longinqua : Numquid Dominus non est in Sion ? aut rex ejus non est in ea ? Quare ergo me ad iracundiam concitaverunt in sculptilibus suis, et in vanitatibus alienis ?
- Septuagint (Swete)
- ἰδοὺ φωνὴ κραυγῆς θυγατρὸς λαοῦ μου ἀπὸ γῆς μακρόθεν· μὴ Κύριος οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν Σειών; ἢ βασιλεὺς οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκεῖ; διὰ τί παρώργισάν με ἐν τοῖς γλυπτοῖς αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν ματαίοις ἀλλοτρίοις;
- Hebrew (WLC)
- הִנֵּה ק֞וֹל שַֽׁוְעַ֣ת בַּת עַמִּ֗י מֵאֶ֨רֶץ֙ מַרְחַקִּ֔ים הַֽיהוָה֙ אֵ֣ין בְּצִיּ֔וֹן אִם מַלְכָּ֖הּ אֵ֣ין בָּ֑הּ מַדּ֗וּעַ הִכְעִס֛וּנִי בִּפְסִלֵיהֶ֖ם בְּהַבְלֵ֥י נֵכָֽר
Haydock's commentary
Sion. Thus the people complain, (Menochius) or God answers them that they had no reason to have recourse to idols for protection. (Calmet)
