Jeremiah 6:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 As the fountain casteth out her waters, so she casteth out her malice; [a]cruelty and spoil is continually heard in her before me, with sorrow and strokes.
8 Be thou instructed, O [b]Jerusalem, lest my soul depart from thee, lest I make thee desolate as a land that none inhabiteth.
9 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, They shall gather as a vine, the residue of Israel: turn [c]back thine hand as the grape gatherer into the baskets.
