Jeremiah 5:15-19

16Their quiver is an open grave. They are all mighty warriors.

17They will devour your harvest and your food. They will devour your sons and your daughters. They will devour your flocks and your herds. They will devour your vines and your fig trees. They will demolish your fortified cities —the ones in which you trust— with the sword.

18“Yet even in those days,” declares Adonai, “I will not completely destroy you.
