And ahis chariots like a whirlwind.
bHis horses are swifter than eagles.
Woe to us, for we are plundered!”
That you may be saved.
How long shall your evil thoughts lodge within you?
Yes, proclaim against Jerusalem,
That watchers come from a afar country
And raise their voice against the cities of Judah.
Because she has been rebellious against Me,” says the Lord.
Have procured these things for you.
This is your wickedness,
Because it is bitter,
Because it reaches to your heart.”
Sorrow for the Doomed Nation
I am pained in my very heart!
My heart makes a noise in me;
I cannot hold my peace,
Because you have heard, O my soul,
The sound of the trumpet,
The alarm of war.
For the whole land is plundered.
Suddenly bmy tents are plundered,
And my curtains in a moment.
They have not known Me.
They are1 silly children,
And they have no understanding.
aThey are wise to do evil,
But to do good they have no knowledge.”

Jeremiah 4:15
For a voice declareth from Dan - Dan was a city in the tribe of Dan, north of Jerusalem; the first city in Palestine, which occurs in the way from Babylon to Jerusalem.
Affliction from Mount Ephraim - Between Dan and Jerusalem are the mountains of Ephraim. These would be the first places attacked by the Chaldeans; and the rumor from thence would show that the land was invaded.
