Jeremiah 4:5-10

5Announce in Judah, proclaim in Jerusalem, and say:

“Blow the ram’s horn throughout the land.Cry aloud and say,‘Assemble yourselvesand let us flee to the fortified cities.’6Raise a signal flag toward Zion.Seek refuge! Do not delay!For I am bringing disaster from the north,and terrible destruction.7A lion has gone up from his thicket,and a destroyer of nations has set out.He has left his lairto lay waste your land.Your cities will be reduced to ruinsand lie uninhabited.8So put on sackcloth,mourn and wail,for the fierce anger of the LORDhas not turned away from us.”
9“In that day,” declares the LORD,“the king and officials will lose their courage.The priests will tremble in fear,and the prophets will be astounded.”

10Then I said, “Ah, Lord GOD, how completely You have deceived this people and Jerusalem by saying, ‘You will have peace,’ while a sword is at our throats.”
