Jeremiah 4:4-6
Contemporary English Version
4 With all your hearts,
keep the agreement
I made with you.
But if you are stubborn
and keep on sinning,
my anger will burn like a fire
that cannot be put out.
Disaster Is Coming
The Lord said:
* 5 “Sound the trumpets, my people.
Warn the people of Judah,[a]
‘Run for your lives!
6 Head for Jerusalem
or another walled town!’
“Jeremiah, tell them I'm sending
disaster from the north.

Jeremiah 4:4-6
New International Version
4 Circumcise yourselves to the Lord,
circumcise your hearts,(A)
you people of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem,
or my wrath(B) will flare up and burn like fire(C)
because of the evil(D) you have done—
burn with no one to quench(E) it.
Disaster From the North
5 “Announce in Judah and proclaim(F) in Jerusalem and say:
‘Sound the trumpet(G) throughout the land!’
Cry aloud and say:
‘Gather together!
Let us flee to the fortified cities!’(H)
6 Raise the signal(I) to go to Zion!
Flee for safety without delay!
For I am bringing disaster(J) from the north,(K)
even terrible destruction.”
