Christ Took Our Punishment
21 But now God has shown us a way to be made right with him without keeping the requirements of the law, as was promised in the writings of Moses[a] and the prophets long ago. 22 We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are.

You see me and test my thoughts.
Drag these people away like sheep to be butchered!
Set them aside to be slaughtered!

who have no understanding.

Jeremiah’s Vision of Coming Disaster
23 I looked at the earth, and it was empty and formless.
I looked at the heavens, and there was no light.
24 I looked at the mountains and hills,
and they trembled and shook.
25 I looked, and all the people were gone.
All the birds of the sky had flown away.
26 I looked, and the fertile fields had become a wilderness.
The towns lay in ruins,
crushed by the Lord’s fierce anger.

“The whole land will be ruined,
but I will not destroy it completely.

they know not how to do good.”(E)

and it was formless and empty;(F)
and at the heavens,
and their light(G) was gone.

25 I looked, and there were no people;
every bird in the sky had flown away.(I)
26 I looked, and the fruitful land was a desert;(J)
all its towns lay in ruins(K)
before the Lord, before his fierce anger.(L)
