Jeremiah 15:6-8
Lexham English Bible
6 You have forsaken me,” declares[a] Yahweh.
“You go backward, so I have stretched my hand against you,
and I have destroyed you.
I am tired of becoming remorseful.
7 And I have winnowed them with a winnowing fork in the gates of the land.
I am bereaved.
I have destroyed my people.
They did not turn back from their ways.
8 Their widows[b] will be more numerous before me than the sand of the seas.
I have brought to them, against the mothers[c] of young men,[d]
a destroyer at noon.
I will suddenly drop on her anguish and horror.[e]
