Jeremiah 10:22
Compare all
20 aMy tent is plundered,
And all my cords are broken;
My children have gone from me,
And they are bno more.
There is no one to pitch my tent anymore,
Or set up my curtains. 
21 For the shepherds have become dull-hearted,
And have not sought the Lord;
Therefore they shall not prosper,
And all their flocks shall be ascattered. 
22 Behold, the noise of the report has come,
And a great commotion out of the anorth country,
To make the cities of Judah desolate, a bden of jackals. 
23 O Lord, I know the away of man is not in himself;
It is not in man who walks to direct his own steps. 
24 O Lord, acorrect me, but with justice;
Not in Your anger, lest You bring me to nothing.

Jeremiah 10:22

The noise of the bruit is come - How this silly French word bruit, which signifies noise, got in here, I cannot imagine. The simple translation is this: "The voice of the report! behold, it is come; yea, great commotion from the land of the north; (Chaldea); to make the cities of Judea a desolation, a habitation of wild beasts." That is, the report we had heard of the projected invasion of Judea by Nebuchadnezzar is confirmed. He has entered the land; the Chaldeans are at the doors, and the total desolation of Judea is their sole object.
