Jeremiah 25:32-38

32“This is what the Lord of Armies says: Disaster is spreading from nation to nation. A great storm is brewing from the distant corners of the earth.”

33On that day those killed by the Lord will stretch from one end of the earth to the other. They will not be mourned, taken away, or buried. They will become like manure on the ground.

34Mourn, you shepherds, and cry. Roll in the dust, you leaders of the flock. The time has come for you to be slaughtered. The time has come for you to be scattered, and you will break like fine pottery.

35There will be no place for the shepherds to flee, no escape for the leaders of the flock.

36The shepherds are crying and the leaders of the flock are mourning because the Lord is stripping their pasture.

37The peaceful pastures are destroyed by the Lord’s burning anger.

38He has left his lair like a lion. Their land has been ruined because of the heat of the oppressor, because of the fury of his anger.
