Jeremiah 8:19
Behold the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people because of them that dwell in a far country: Is not the LORD in Zion? is not her king in her? Why have they provoked me to anger with their graven images, and with strange vanities?
KJV
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 ?
Vulgate
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;
LXX
Behold, the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people from a land that is very far off: is not Jehovah in Zion? is not her King in her? Why have they provoked me to anger with their graven images, and with foreign vanities?
