Jeremiah 4:11-12
New Living Translation
11 The time is coming when the Lord will say
to the people of Jerusalem,
“My dear people, a burning wind is blowing in from the desert,
and it’s not a gentle breeze useful for winnowing grain.
12 It is a roaring blast sent by me!
Now I will pronounce your destruction!”
Jeremiah 4:11-12
International Standard Version
The Scorching Wind of Judgment
11 At that time, it will be told this people and to Jerusalem, “A scorching wind from the barren heights in the desert is coming[a] toward my people, and it’s not for winnowing or cleansing. 12 A wind too strong for that is coming at my bidding.[b] Now I’m judging them as I speak.”
