Jeremiah 1:13-16
Evangelical Heritage Version
13 The word of the Lord came to me a second time: “What do you see?”
I answered, “I see a boiling pot tipped away from the north.”
14 Then the Lord said to me:
Disaster will boil over from the north on everyone who lives in the land.
15 Listen, I am summoning all the clans from the northern kingdoms, declares the Lord. They will come, and each one will set up his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem. They will come against all the surrounding walls and against all the cities of Judah. 16 I will pronounce my judgments against Judah because of their wickedness. They have abandoned me. They have made burnt offerings to other gods, and they have bowed down to the work of their own hands.
Jeremiah 1:13-16
Lexham English Bible
13 And the word of Yahweh came to me a second time, saying,[a] “What are you seeing?” And I said, “I am seeing a boiling[b] pot, and its face is from the face of the north.” 14 Then Yahweh said to me, “From the north disaster will be unleashed[c] on all the inhabitants of the land. 15 For, look, I am calling to all the clans[d] of the kingdoms of the north,” declares[e] Yahweh, “and they will come and set each one his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all its surrounding walls, and against all the cities of Judah. 16 And I will pass[f] my judgments on them because of all their wickedness in that they have forsaken me, and they made sacrifices to other gods, and they bowed in worship to the works of their hands.
