Jeremiah 8:11-14

11For they have healedH7495 the hurtH7667 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 slightlyH7043, sayingH559, PeaceH7965, peaceH7965; when there is no peaceH7965. 12Were they ashamedH3001 when they had committedH6213 abominationH8441? nay, they were not at allH954 ashamedH954, neither couldH3045 they blushH3637: therefore shall they fallH5307 among them that fallH5307: in the timeH6256 of their visitationH6486 they shall be cast downH3782, saithH559 YhwhH3068.

13I will surelyH622 consumeH5486 them, saithH5002 YhwhH3068: there shall be no grapesH6025 on the vineH1612, nor figsH8384 on the fig treeH8384, and the leafH5929 shall fadeH5034; and the things that I have givenH5414 them shall pass awayH5674 from them.1 14Why do we sit stillH3427? assembleH622 yourselves, and let us enterH935 into the defencedH4013 citiesH5892, and let us be silentH1826 there: for YhwhH3068 our GodH430 hath put us to silenceH1826, and given us waterH4325 of gallH7219 to drinkH8248, because we have sinnedH2398 against YhwhH3068.2
