a“Break up your1 fallow ground,
And bdo not sow among thorns.
And take away the foreskins of your hearts,
You men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem,
Lest My fury come forth like fire,
And burn so that no one can quench it,
Because of the evil of your doings.”
An Imminent Invasion
a“Blow the trumpet in the land;
Cry, ‘Gather together,’
And say, b‘Assemble yourselves,
And let us go into the fortified cities.’
Take refuge! Do not delay!
For I will bring disaster from the anorth,
And great destruction.”
And bthe destroyer of nations is on his way.
He has gone forth from his place
cTo make your land desolate.
Your cities will be laid waste,
Without inhabitant.
Lament and wail.
For the fierce anger of the Lord
Has not turned back from us.
“That the heart of the king shall perish,
And the heart of the princes;
The priests shall be astonished,
And the prophets shall wonder.”

The trumpet - The Lord being now about to bring enemies upon them, speaks in martial language, warning them of the nature of their approaching judgment.
