Jeremiah 6:1-6 (Young's Literal Translation)
View In My Bible
1
Strengthen yourselves, sons of Benjamin, From the midst of Jerusalem, And in Tekoa blow ye a trumpet, And over Beth-Haccerem lift ye up a flame, For evil hath been seen from the north, And great destruction.
2
The comely and the delicate one I have cut off, The daughter of Zion.
3
Unto her come do shepherds and their droves, They have stricken tents by her round about, They have fed each [in] his own station.
4
Sanctify ye against her the battle, Rise, and we go up at noon. Wo to us, for turned hath the day, For stretched out are the shades of evening,
5
`Rise, and we go up by night, And we destroy her palaces.'
6
For thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Cut down her wood, And pour out against Jerusalem a mount, She [is] the city to be inspected, Wholly -- she is oppression in her midst.
