jeremiah 13:17 But if ye will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret places for your pride; and mine eye shall weep sore, and run down with tears, because the LORD'S flock is carried away captive.

jeremiah 13:17 But if you will not listen to it, My soul will sob in secret for [such] pride; And my eyes will bitterly weep And flow down with tears, Because the flock of the LORD has been taken captive.

17. hear it--my exhortation.
in secret--as one mourning and humbling himself for their sin, not self-righteously condemning them (Php 3:18).
pride--(see on Jer 13:15; Job 33:17).
flock-- (Jer 13:20), just as kings and leaders are called pastors.

jeremiah 13:17 But if you will not listen to it, My soul will sob in secret for [such] pride; And my eyes will bitterly weep And flow down with tears, Because the flock of the LORD has been taken captive.
