Jeremiah 6:24-26

24We have heard about it, and our hands have become weak. Distress has seized us — pain, like a woman in labor.

25Don’t go out to the fields; don’t walk on the road. For the enemy has a sword; terror is on every side.

26My dear people, dress yourselves in sackcloth and roll in the dust. Mourn as you would for an only son, a bitter lament, for suddenly the destroyer will come on us.
