Jeremiah 4:23-28

23I lookedH7200 on the earthH776, and beholdH2009, it was 12formlessH8414 and voidH922; And to the heavensH8064, and they hadH369 noH369 lightH216.24I lookedH7200 on the mountainsH2022, and beholdH2009, they were 3quakingH7493, And allH3605 the hillsH1389 4movedH7043 to and froH7043.25I lookedH7200, and beholdH2009, thereH369 was noH369 manH120, And allH3605 the 5birdsH5775 of the heavensH8064 had fledH5074.26I lookedH7200, and beholdH2009, 6the 7fruitfulH3759 landH3759 was a wildernessH4057, And allH3605 its citiesH5892 were pulledH5422 downH5422 BeforeH4480H6440 the LordH3068, beforeH4480H6440 His fierceH2740 angerH639.

27For thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, “The 8wholeH3605 landH776 shall be a desolationH8077, Yet I will 9not executeH6213 a completeH3617 destructionH3617.28For thisH2088 the 10earthH776 shall mournH56 And the 11heavensH8064 aboveH4480H4605 be darkH6937, BecauseH5921H3588 I have 12spokenH1696, I have purposedH2161, And I will not 13changeH5162 My mindH5162, norH3808 will I turnH7725 from it.”
