Jeremiah 4:29Wycliffe's Bible with Modern SpellingEach city fled from the voice of a knight, and a man shooting an arrow; they entered into hard places, and ascended [or went up] into rocks of stone; all [the] cities be forsaken, and no man dwelleth in them. See the chapter |
And the city was broken, and all men warriors thereof fled; and they went out of the city in the night, by the way of the gate, which is betwixt two walls, and leadeth to the garden of the king, while [the] Chaldees besieged the city in compass; and they went forth by the way that leadeth into desert.
I saw the Lord standing on the altar, and he said, Smite thou the hinges, and the over-thresholds, either lintels, be moved altogether; for avarice is in the head of all, and I shall slay by sword the last of them; there shall no flight be to them, and he that shall flee of them, shall not be saved.
