Jeremiah 15:2-9

2 IfH3588 they ask youH559 H413, ‘WhereH575 shall we goH3318?’ you are to tell themH559 thatH413 this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559:

‘ThoseH834 destined for deathH4194, to deathH4194;thoseH834 destined for the swordH2719, to the swordH2719;1thoseH834 destined for famineH7458, to famineH7458;and thoseH834 destined for captivityH7628, to captivityH7628.’

3I will appointH6485 over themH5921 fourH702 kinds of destroyersH4940, declaresH5002 the LORDH3068 : the swordH2719 to killH2026 , the dogsH3611 to drag awayH5498 , and the birdsH5775 of the airH8064 and beastsH929 of the earthH776 to devourH398 and destroyH7843. 4I will make themH5414 a horrorH2113 to allH3605 the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776 because ofH1558 whatH834 ManassehH4519 sonH1121 of HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 didH6213 in JerusalemH3389.

5 WhoH4310 will have pityH2550 on youH5921, O JerusalemH3389?WhoH4310 will mournH5110 for you?WhoH4310 will turn asideH5493to askH7592 about your welfareH7965?6YouH859 have forsakenH5203 MeH853, declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.You have turned your backH268 H1980.So I will stretch outH5186 My handH3027 against youH5921and I will destroy youH7843;I am wearyH3811 of showing compassionH5162.

7I will scatter themH2219 with a winnowing forkH4214at the gatesH8179 of the landH776.I will bereaveH7921 and destroyH6 My peopleH5971who have notH3808 turnedH7725 from their waysH1870.8I will make their widowsH490 more numerousH6105than the sandH2344 of the seaH3220.I will bringH935 a destroyerH7703 at noonH6672againstH5921 the mothersH517 of young menH970.I will suddenlyH6597 bringH5307 upon themH5921anguishH5892 and dismayH928.

9The motherH3205 of sevenH7651 will grow faintH535;she will breatheH5301 her last breathH5315.Her sunH8121 will setH935 while it is stillH5750 dayH3119;she will be disgracedH954 and humiliatedH2659.And the restH7611 I will putH5414 to the swordH2719in the presenceH6440 of their enemiesH341,”declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.
