Jeremiah 6:1-4

1O ye childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144, gather yourselves to fleeH5756 out of the midstH7130 of JerusalemH3389, and blowH8628 the trumpetH7782 in TekoaH8620, and set upH5375 a signH4864 of fire in Beth–hacceremH1021: for evilH7451 appearethH8259 out of the northH6828, and greatH1419 destructionH7667.

2I have likenedH1820 the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726 to a comelyH5116 and delicateH6026 woman.1

3The shepherdsH7462 with their flocksH5739 shall comeH935 unto her; they shall pitchH8628 their tentsH168 against her round aboutH5439; they shall feedH7462 every oneH376 in his placeH3027.

4PrepareH6942 ye warH4421 against her; ariseH6965, and let us go upH5927 at noonH6672. WoeH188 unto us! for the dayH3117 goeth awayH6437, for the shadowsH6752 of the eveningH6153 are stretched outH5186.
