Arise, and let us go up bat noon.
Woe to us, for the day goes away,
For the shadows of the evening are lengthening.
And let us destroy her palaces.”
“Cut down trees,
And build a mound against Jerusalem.
This is the city to be punished.
She is full of oppression in her midst.
So she wells up with her wickedness.
bViolence and plundering are heard in her.
Before Me continually are1 grief and wounds.
Lest aMy soul depart from you;
Lest I make you desolate,
A land not inhabited.”
| << Jeremiah 6:5 | Jeremiah 6:7 >> |
Jeremiah 6:6
Hew ye down trees - To form machines.
And cast a mount - That may overlook the city, on which to place our engines.
This is the city to be visited - We are sure of success, for their God will deliver it into our hands, for it is full of oppression, and he has consigned it to destruction.
| << Jeremiah 6:5 | Jeremiah 6:7 >> |
