Jeremiah 4:5-9 English Revised Version (ERV)

5. Declare ye in Judah, and publish in Jerusalem; and say, Blow ye the trumpet in the land: cry aloud and say? Assemble yourselves, and let us go into the fenced cities.

6. Set up a standard toward Zion: flee for safety, stay not: for I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction.

7. A lion is gone up from his thicket, and a destroyer of nations; he is on his way, he is gone forth from his place; to make thy land desolate, that thy cities be laid waste, without inhabitant.

8. For this gird you with sackcloth, lament and howl: for the fierce anger of the LORD is not turned back from us.

9. And it shall come to pass at that day, saith the LORD, that the heart of the king shall perish, and the heart of the princes; and the priests shall be astonished, and the prophets shall wonder.
