My tabernacle is spoiled, and all my cords are broken: my children are gone forth of me, and they are not: there is none to stretch forth my tent any more, and to set up my curtains.

The verse 20 is found in chapter 10 of Jeremiah. The community must gather its belongings because exile is approaching. Jeremiah laments his wound and recognizes that the human path is not under human control. The final prayer asks for discipline without complete destruction and judgment upon the nations that have devoured Jacob, showing that God judges both his people and their oppressors.

Meine Hütte ist zerstört, und alle meine Seile sind zerrissen. Meine Kinder sind von mir gegangen und nicht mehr da. Niemand ist, der meine Hütte wieder aufrichte und mein Gezelt aufschlage.
Mi tienda es destruida, y todas mis cuerdas están rotas: mis hijos fueron sacados de mí, y perecieron: no hay ya más quien extienda mi tienda, ni quien levante mis cortinas.
Ma tente est détruite, Tous mes cordages sont rompus; Mes fils m'ont quittée, ils ne sont plus; Je n'ai personne qui dresse de nouveau ma tente, Qui relève mes pavillons. -
Le mie tende son guaste, e tutte le mie corde son rotte; i miei figliuoli sono usciti fuor di me, e non sono più; non vi è più alcuno che tenda il mio padiglione, nè che rizzi i miei teli.
A minha tenda está destruída, e todas as minhas cordas se romperam; os meus filhos foram-se de mim, e não existem; ninguém há mais que estenda a minha tenda, nem que levante as minhas cortinas,
我的帳棚毀壞, 我的繩索折斷, 我的兒女都離我而去,不在了。 再無人來支搭我的帳棚,掛起我的幔子。
