Jeremiah 4:13-17
Legacy Standard Bible
13 Behold, he (A)goes up like clouds,
And his (B)chariots like the whirlwind;
His horses are (C)swifter than eagles.
Woe to us, for (D)we are devastated!”
14 Wash your heart from evil, O Jerusalem,
That you may be saved.
How long will your (E)wicked thoughts
Lodge within you?
15 For a voice declares from (F)Dan,
And makes wickedness heard from Mount Ephraim.
16 “Make mention of it to the nations, saying, ‘Behold!’
Make it heard over Jerusalem,
‘Besiegers come from a (G)far country,
And (H)give forth their voices against the cities of Judah.
17 Like watchmen of a field they are (I)against her round about
Because she has (J)rebelled against Me,’ declares Yahweh.
Jeremiah 4:13-17
International Standard Version
The People’s Response to Judgment
13 Look, he comes up like clouds,
and his chariots are like a whirlwind.
His horses are as swift as eagles.
Woe to us—we’re destroyed!
14 Jerusalem, wash your evil from your heart
so that you may be delivered.
How long will you harbor
evil schemes within you?
15 For a voice announces from Dan
and declares disaster from Mount Ephraim.
The Lord Speaks
16 “Tell the nations, ‘Here they come!’[a]
Proclaim to Jerusalem,
‘The besieging forces are coming from a distant land.
They cry out[b] against the cities of Judah.
17 They have surrounded her like those guarding a field
because they have rebelled against me,’”
declares the Lord.
