Jeremiah 4:6Christian Standard Bible AnglicisedLift up a signal flag towards Zion. Run for cover! Don’t stand still! For I am bringing disaster from the north – a crushing blow. See the chapter |
I am going to send for all the families of the north” #– #this is the Lord’s declaration #– #”and send for my servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and I will bring them against this land, against its residents, and against all these surrounding nations, and I will completely destroy them and make them an example of horror and scorn, and ruins for ever.
Afterwards #– #this is the Lord’s declaration #– #King Zedekiah of Judah, his officers, and the people #– #those in this city who survive the plague, the sword, and the famine #– #I will hand over to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, to their enemies, yes, to those who intend to take their lives. He will put them to the sword; he won’t spare them or show pity or compassion.”
