Jeremiah 5:10-18
10Go up through her vineyards and ravage them, but do not finish them off. Strip off her branches, for they do not belong to the LORD.11For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have been utterly unfaithful to Me,” declares the LORD.
12They have lied about the LORD and said:
“He will not do anything; harm will not come to us;we will not see sword or famine.13The prophets are but wind,for the word is not in them.So let their own predictions befall them.1”
14Therefore this is what the LORD God of Hosts says:
“Because you have spoken this word,I will make My words a fire in your mouthand this people the wood it consumes.15Behold, I am bringing a distant nation against you,O house of Israel,” declares the LORD.“It is an established nation,an ancient nation,a nation whose language you do not knowand whose speech you do not understand.16Their quivers are like open graves;they are all mighty men.17They will devour your harvest and food;they will consume your sons and daughters;they will eat up your flocks and herds;they will feed on your vines and fig trees.With the sword they will destroythe fortified cities in which you trust.”
18“Yet even in those days,” declares the LORD, “I will not make a full end of you.
