Jeremiah 4:5-18

5DeclareH5046 ye in JudahH3063, and cause it to be heardH8085 in JerusalemH3389, and sayH559, ...and blowH8628 the trumpetH7782 in the landH776, cry aloud and sayH559, Assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the fenced citiesH5892.

6SetH5975 up a banner toward ZionH6726; takeH5375 to flight, stay not! For I am bringingH935 evilH7451 from the northH6828, and a greatH1419 destructionH7667.

7The lionH738 is comeH5927 up from his thicket, the destroyerH7843 of the nationsH1471 is on his way; he is goneH3318 forthH3318 from his placeH4725, to makeH7760 thy landH776 desolate; thy citiesH5892 shall be laid wasteH8047, without inhabitantH3427.

8For this, girdH2296 you with sackclothH8242, lamentH5594 and howl! for the fierce angerH639 of Jehovah is not turnedH7725 awayH7725 from us.

9And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, saith Jehovah, that the heartH3820 of the kingH4428 shall perishH6, and the heartH3820 of the princesH8269; and the priestsH3548 shall beH1961 astonished, and the prophetsH5030 shall beH1961 amazed.

10And I saidH559, AlasH162, LordH136 Jehovah! surely thou hast greatly deceived this peopleH5971 and JerusalemH3389, sayingH559, Ye shall have peaceH7965; whereas the swordH2719 reacheth unto the soulH5315.

11At that timeH6256 shall it be saidH559 to this peopleH5971 and to JerusalemH3389, A hot windH7307 [cometh] from the heightsH8205 in the wildernessH4057, on the wayH1870 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971, not for fanning, nor for cleansing.

12A windH7307 more vehement than that shall comeH935 from me: nowH6258 will I alsoH1571 pronounce judgmentsH4941 against them.

13Behold, he cometh up as cloudsH6051, and his chariotsH4818 are as a whirlwind; his horsesH5483 are swifter than eaglesH5404. WoeH188 unto us! for we are destroyedH7703.

14WashH3526 thy heartH3820, JerusalemH3389, from wickednessH205, that thou mayest be savedH3467. How long shall thy vain thoughtsH4284 lodge within thee?

15For a voiceH6963 declareth from DanH1835, and publisheth affliction from mount EphraimH669.

16Inform the nationsH1471; behold, makeH5414 JerusalemH3389 to hearH8085: Besiegers comeH935 from a far country, and raise their voiceH6963 against the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063.

17As keepersH8104 of a fieldH7704 are they against her roundH5439 about; for she hath beenH1961 rebelliousH4784 against me, saith Jehovah.

18Thy wayH1870 and thy doings have procured these [thingsH428] unto thee; this is thy wickednessH7451, yea, it is bitterH4751, yea, it reacheth unto thy heartH3820.
