Jeremiah 4:20-29

20Disaster after disaster is proclaimed, for the whole land is laid waste. My tents are destroyed in an instant, my curtains in a moment.21How long must I see the signal flag and hear the sound of the horn?

22“For My people are fools;they have not known Me.They are foolish children,without understanding.They are skilled in doing evil,but they know not how to do good.”
23I looked at the earth,and it was formless and void;I looked to the heavens,and they had no light.24I looked at the mountains,and behold, they were quaking;all the hills were swaying.25I looked, and no man was left;all the birds of the air had fled.26I looked, and the fruitful land was a desert.All its cities were torn downbefore the LORD,before His fierce anger.

27For this is what the LORD says:

“The whole land will be desolate,but I will not finish its destruction.28Therefore the earth will mournand the heavens above will grow dark.I have spoken, I have planned,and I will not relent or turn back.”
29Every city fleesat the sound of the horseman and archer.They enter the thicketsand climb among the rocks.Every city is abandoned;no inhabitant is left.
