Jeremiah 6:1-8

1“Run for coverH5756, O sonsH1121 of BenjaminH1144; flee from JerusalemH3389! SoundH8628 the ram’s hornH7782 in TekoaH8620; send upH5375 a signalH4864 overH5921 Beth-haccheremH1021, forH3588 disasterH7451 loomsH8259 from the northH6828, even greatH1419 destructionH7667.2Though she is beautifulH5000 and delicateH6026, I will destroyH1819 the DaughterH1323 of ZionH6726.13ShepherdsH7462 and their flocksH5739 will comeH935 against herH413; they will pitchH8628 H5921 their tentsH168 all around herH5439 H7462, eachH376 tending his own portionH3027:4‘PrepareH6942 for battleH4421 against herH5921; rise upH6965, let us attackH5927 at noonH6672. WoeH188 to us, forH3588 the daylightH3117 H3588 is fadingH6437; the eveningH6153 shadowsH6752 grow longH5186.5Rise upH6965, let us attackH5927 by nightH3915 and destroyH7843 her fortressesH759!’”

6ForH3588 this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635 saysH559:

“Cut downH3772 the treesH6097and raiseH8210 a siege rampH5550 againstH5921 JerusalemH3389.ThisH1931 cityH5892 must be punishedH6485;there is nothing butH3605 oppressionH6233 in her midstH7130.7As a wellH953 gushesH6979 its waterH4325,soH3651 she pours outH6979 her evilH7451.ViolenceH2555 and destructionH7701 resoundH8085 in her;sicknessH2483 and woundsH4347 are everH8548 beforeH5921 MeH6440.8Be forewarnedH3256, O JerusalemH3389,orH6435 IH5315 will turn awayH3363 from youH4480 H6435;I will makeH7760 you a desolationH8077,a landH776 withoutH3808 inhabitantH3427.”
