Jeremiah 6:1-8
1FleeH5756 for safetyH5756, ye childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144, outH8259 of the midstH7130 of JerusalemH3389, and blowH8628 the trumpetH7782 in TekoaH8620, and raiseH5375 upH5375 a signalH4864 on Beth-haccheremH1021: for evilH7451 looketh forthH5375 from the northH6828, and a greatH1419 destructionH7667.
2The comelyH5000 and delicate one, the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726, will I cutH1820 offH1820.
3ShepherdsH7462 with their flocksH5739 shall comeH935 unto herH413; they shall pitchH8628 their tentsH168 againstH5921 herH413 roundH5439 aboutH5439; they shall feedH7462 everyH376 one in his placeH3027.
4PrepareH6942 ye warH4421 againstH5921 herH5921; ariseH6965, and letH5186 usH5921 goH5927 upH5927 at noonH6672. WoeH188 unto usH5921! for the dayH3117 declineth, for the shadows of the eveningH6153 are stretchedH5186 outH5186.
5AriseH6965, and let usH5927 goH5927 upH5927 by nightH3915, and let usH5927 destroyH7843 herH7843 palacesH759.
6For thusH3541 hath the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 saidH559, Hew ye downH3772 treesH6097, and castH8210 upH5921 a mount againstH5921 JerusalemH3389: this is the cityH5892 to be visitedH6485; sheH1931 is whollyH3605 oppressionH6233 in the midstH7130 of herH3605.
7As a wellH3651 casteth forthH8085 herH5921 watersH4325, soH3651 sheH6440 casteth forthH8085 herH5921 wickednessH7451: violenceH2555 and spoil is heardH8085 in herH5921; beforeH6440 meH6440 continuallyH8548 is sicknessH2483 and woundsH4347.
8Be thou instructedH3256, O JerusalemH3389, lestH6435 my soulH5315 be alienatedH3363 from thee; lestH6435 I makeH7760 thee a desolationH8077, a landH776 notH3808 inhabitedH3427.
