Jeremiah 4:10
Deceived - Hast suffered them to be deceived by their false prophets. Whereas - To persuade them it should be well with them, when the sword is at the door, not only ready to take away the comforts of life, but even life itself.
8 For this, aclothe yourself with sackcloth,
Lament and wail.
For the fierce anger of the Lord
Has not turned back from us.
Lament and wail.
For the fierce anger of the Lord
Has not turned back from us.
9 “And it shall come to pass in that day,” says the Lord,
“That the heart of the king shall perish,
And the heart of the princes;
The priests shall be astonished,
And the prophets shall wonder.”
“That the heart of the king shall perish,
And the heart of the princes;
The priests shall be astonished,
And the prophets shall wonder.”
10 Then I said, “Ah, Lord God!
aSurely You have greatly deceived this people and Jerusalem,
bSaying, ‘You shall have peace,’
Whereas the sword reaches to the1 heart.”
aSurely You have greatly deceived this people and Jerusalem,
bSaying, ‘You shall have peace,’
Whereas the sword reaches to the1 heart.”
11 At that time it will be said
To this people and to Jerusalem,
a“A dry wind of the desolate heights blows in the wilderness
Toward the daughter of My people—
Not to fan or to cleanse—
To this people and to Jerusalem,
a“A dry wind of the desolate heights blows in the wilderness
Toward the daughter of My people—
Not to fan or to cleanse—
