Jeremiah 6:22-24
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
22 Thus says the Lord:
See, a people comes from the land of the north,
a great nation, rising from the very ends of the earth.(A)
23 Bow and javelin they wield;
cruel and pitiless are they.
They sound like the roaring sea
as they ride forth on horses,
Each in his place for battle
against you, daughter Zion.
24 We hear news of them;
our hands hang helpless,
Anguish takes hold of us,
pangs like a woman in childbirth.(B)
Jeremiah 6:22-24
New International Version
22 This is what the Lord says:
“Look, an army is coming
from the land of the north;(A)
a great nation is being stirred up
from the ends of the earth.(B)
23 They are armed with bow and spear;
they are cruel and show no mercy.(C)
They sound like the roaring sea(D)
as they ride on their horses;(E)
they come like men in battle formation
to attack you, Daughter Zion.(F)”
