@ O ye
children
of
Benjamin
, gather yourselves to
flee
out of the
midst
of
Jerusalem
, and
blow
the
trumpet
in
Tekoa
, and set
up
a
sign
of fire in
Bethhaccerem
Beyth hak-: for
evil
appeareth
out of the
north
, and
great
destruction
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:2
@ I have
likened
the
daughter
of
Zion
to a
comely
and
delicate
woman.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:3
@ The
shepherds
with their
flocks
shall
come
unto her; they shall
pitch
their
tents
against her round
about
; they shall
feed
every
one
in his
place
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:4
@
Prepare
ye
war
against her;
arise
, and let us go
up
at
noon
.
Woe
unto us! for the
day
goeth
away
, for the
shadows
of the
evening
are stretched
out
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:5
@
Arise
, and let us
go
by
night
, and let us
destroy
her
palaces
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:6
@ For thus hath the
LORD
of
hosts
said
, Hew ye
down
trees
, and
cast
a
mount
against
Jerusalem
: this is the
city
to be
visited
; she is wholly
oppression
in the
midst
of her.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:7
@ As a
fountain
casteth
out
her
waters
, so she casteth
out
her
wickedness
:
violence
and
spoil
is
heard
in her; before
me
continually
is
grief
and
wounds
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:8
@ Be thou
instructed
, O
Jerusalem
, lest my
soul
depart
from thee; lest I
make
thee
desolate
, a
land
not
inhabited
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:9
@ Thus
saith
the
LORD
of
hosts
, They shall
throughly
glean
the
remnant
of
Israel
as a
vine
: turn
back
thine
hand
as a
grapegatherer
into the
baskets
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:10
@ To whom shall I
speak
, and give
warning
, that they may
hear
? behold, their
ear
is
uncircumcised
, and they
cannot
hearken
: behold, the
word
of the
LORD
is unto them a
reproach
; they have no
delight
in it.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:11
@ Therefore I am
full
of the
fury
of the
LORD
; I am
weary
with holding
in
: I will pour it
out
upon the
children
abroad
, and upon the
assembly
of young
men
together
: for even the
husband
with the
wife
shall be
taken
, the
aged
with him that is
full
of
days
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:12
@ And their
houses
shall be
turned
unto
others
, with their
fields
and
wives
together
: for I will stretch
out
my
hand
upon the
inhabitants
of the
land
,
saith
the
LORD
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:13
@ For from the
least
of them even unto the
greatest
of them every one is
given
to
covetousness
; and from the
prophet
even unto the
priest
every one
dealeth
falsely
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:14
@ They have
healed
also the
hurt
of the
daughter
of my
people
slightly
,
saying
,
Peace
,
peace
; when there is no
peace
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:15
@ Were they
ashamed
when they had
committed
abomination
?
nay
, they were not at
all
ashamed
,
neither
could
they
blush
: therefore they shall
fall
among them that
fall
: at the
time
that I
visit
them they shall be cast
down
,
saith
the
LORD
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:16
@ Thus
saith
the
LORD
,
Stand
ye in the
ways
, and
see
, and
ask
for the
old
paths
, where is the
good
way
, and
walk
therein, and ye shall
find
rest
for your
souls
. But they
said
, We will not
walk
therein.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:17
@ Also I
set
watchmen
over you, saying,
Hearken
to the
sound
of the
trumpet
. But they
said
, We will not
hearken
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:18
@ Therefore
hear
, ye
nations
, and
know
, O
congregation
, what is among them.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:19
@
Hear
, O
earth
: behold, I will
bring
evil
upon this
people
, even the
fruit
of their
thoughts
, because they have not
hearkened
unto my
words
, nor to my
law
, but
rejected
it.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:20
@ To what purpose
cometh
there to me
incense
from
Sheba
, and the
sweet
cane
from a
far
country
? your burnt
offerings
are not
acceptable
, nor your
sacrifices
sweet
unto me.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:21
@ Therefore thus
saith
the
LORD
, Behold, I will
lay
stumblingblocks
before this
people
, and the
fathers
and the
sons
together
shall
fall
upon them; the
neighbour
and his
friend
shall
perish
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:22
@ Thus
saith
the
LORD
, Behold, a
people
cometh
from the
north
country
, and a
great
nation
shall be
raised
from the
sides
of the
earth
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:23
@ They shall lay
hold
on
bow
and
spear
; they are
cruel
, and have no
mercy
; their
voice
roareth
like the
sea
; and they
ride
upon
horses
, set in
array
as
men
for
war
against thee, O
daughter
of
Zion
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:24
@ We have
heard
the
fame
thereof: our
hands
wax
feeble
:
anguish
hath taken
hold
of us, and
pain
, as of a woman in
travail
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:25
@ Go not
forth
into the
field
, nor
walk
by the
way
; for the
sword
of the
enemy
and
fear
is on every
side
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:26
@ O
daughter
of my
people
,
gird
thee with
sackcloth
, and
wallow
thyself in
ashes
:
make
thee
mourning
, as for an only
son
, most
bitter
lamentation
: for the
spoiler
shall
suddenly
come
upon us.
strkjv@Jeremiah:6:27
@ I have
set
thee for a
tower
and a
fortress
among my
people
, that thou mayest
know

try
their

strkjv@Jeremiah:6:28
@ They are all
grievous
revolters
,
walking
with
slanders
: they are
brass

iron
; they are all
corrupters

strkjv@Jeremiah:6:29
@ The
bellows
are
burned
, the
lead
is
consumed
of the

H784; the

melteth
in

wicked
are not plucked
away

silver
shall men
call
them, because the
LORD
hath
rejected
them.
