Gen Z: Jeremiah 16
1God slid into my DMs, saying,
2Don’t be getting a wifey or having kids here, fam.
3The Lord’s spillin’ tea about the kids born here and their moms and dads, fr.
4They gonna catch some serious Ls; no one’s gonna feel it, and they won’t even get buried; they’ll just be like trash on the ground, and the birds and beasts gonna munch on them.
5Yo, don’t even roll up to the mourning house or feel sorry for them; I took my peace away from this crew, no cap.
6Everyone, big or small, gonna bite the dust here; no one’s getting buried, and nobody's gonna cry for them or do any of that extra stuff.
7No one’s gonna be tearing up or giving them a drink to ease the pain for their fam, periodt.
8Don’t even think about going to their party to eat and vibe, fam.
9The Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, is saying, look, I’m about to make the fun stop here; no more wedding bells or happy vibes in your sight.
10When you tell these people all this, they gonna ask, “Why’s the Lord coming for us like this? What’s our deal?”
11You gonna tell them, “Your fam ghosted me, and they chased after other gods, serving and worshipping them instead of sticking with me and my laws.”
12You all are doing worse than your fam; everyone’s just vibing with their evil hearts, ignoring me.
13So I’m about to bounce you outta this land to a place you don’t even know; you’ll be serving other gods day and night, and I won’t show you any love.
14Check it, the days are coming, says the Lord, when it won't be said, “The Lord’s the one who brought the Israelites outta Egypt” anymore.
15But instead, it’ll be said, “The Lord’s the one who brought the Israelites from the north and all the places He scattered them,” and I’ll bring them back to their land, no cap.
16Bet, I’m sending out a squad of fishers, says the Lord, and they gonna catch them; then I’ll send hunters to track them down from every mountain and hill, and even the rocks.
17My eyes are on all their moves; nothing’s hidden from me, no sus behavior.
18First, I’m gonna double back on their sins; they’ve messed up my land and filled my inheritance with their nasty stuff.
19O Lord, you’re my strength and fortress, my safe space when things get rough; the outsiders gonna come to you from everywhere, saying, “Our fam inherited lies and empty vibes.”
20Can a dude make himself gods that aren’t even real?
21So, check it, I’m about to make them know my power; they gonna realize my name is The Lord, fr.
