What will you say when he sets over you as head those whom you have yourself taught to be friends to you? Won’t sorrows take hold of you, as of a woman in travail?

ગુજરાતીયર્મિયા ૧૩:૨૧
તારા પડોશી દેશો જેને તેં શીખવાડ્યું હતું અને જેઓને તેં મિત્રો ગણ્યા હતા તેઓને ઈશ્વર તારા પર રાજકર્તાઓ તરીકે બેસાડશે તો તું શું કહેશે? ત્યારે સ્ત્રીને પ્રસૂતિની પીડા થાય છે તેવી વેદના શું તને થશે નહિ?
हिन्दीयिर्मयाह १३:२१
जब वह तेरे उन मित्रों को तेरे ऊपर प्रधान ठहराएगा जिन्हें तूने अपनी हानि करने की शिक्षा दी है, तब तू क्या कहेगी? क्या उस समय तुझे जच्चा की सी पीड़ाएँ न उठेंगी?

In context

19The cities of the South are shut up, and there is no one to open them. Judah is carried away captive: all of them. They are wholly carried away captive.

20Lift up your eyes, and see those who come from the north. Where is the flock that was given to you, your beautiful flock?

21What will you say when he sets over you as head those whom you have yourself taught to be friends to you? Won’t sorrows take hold of you, as of a woman in travail?

22If you say in your heart, “Why have these things come on me?” Your skirts are uncovered because of the greatness of your iniquity, and your heels suffer violence.

23Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? Then may you also do good, who are accustomed to do evil.
