Jeremiah 4:3-4
Holman Christian Standard Bible
3 For this is what the Lord says to the men of Judah and Jerusalem:
Break up the unplowed ground;(A)
do not sow among the thorns.(B)
4 Circumcise yourselves to the Lord;
remove the foreskin of your hearts,(C)
men of Judah and residents of Jerusalem.
Otherwise, My wrath will break out like fire
and burn with no one to extinguish it(D)
because of your evil deeds.
Jeremiah 4:3-4
Common English Bible
3 This is what the Lord says to the people of Judah and to the residents of Jerusalem:
Break up your hard rocky soil;
don’t plant among the thorns.
4 Dedicate[a] yourselves to the Lord;
don’t be thick-skinned,[b]
people of Judah and residents of Jerusalem,
or else my anger will spread like a wildfire.
It will burn, with no one to put it out,
because of your evil deeds.
