Jeremiah 6:2-4
New King James Version

2 I have likened the daughter of Zion
To a lovely and delicate woman.
3 The (A)shepherds with their flocks shall come to her.
They shall pitch their tents against her all around.
Each one shall pasture in his own place.”

4 “Prepare(B) war against her;
Arise, and let us go up (C)at noon.
Woe to us, for the day goes away,
For the shadows of the evening are lengthening.
