Jeremiah 6:24-26

New Revised Standard NRS

24 "We have heard news of them, our hands fall helpless; anguish has taken hold of us, pain as of a woman in labor.

25 Do not go out into the field, or walk on the road; for the enemy has a sword, terror is on every side."

26 O my poor people, put on sackcloth, and roll in ashes; make mourning as for an only child, most bitter lamentation: for suddenly the destroyer will come upon us.

New International Version NIV

24 We have heard reports about them, and our hands hang limp. Anguish has gripped us, pain like that of a woman in labor.

25 Do not go out to the fields or walk on the roads, for the enemy has a sword, and there is terror on every side.

26 Put on sackcloth, my people, and roll in ashes; mourn with bitter wailing as for an only son, for suddenly the destroyer will come upon us.
