Jeremiah 4:13-17
New American 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 ruined!”
14 Wash your heart from evil, Jerusalem,
So that you may be saved.
How long will your (E)wicked thoughts
Lodge within you?
15 For a voice declares from (F)Dan,
And proclaims wickedness from Mount Ephraim.
16 “Report it to the nations, now!
Proclaim to Jerusalem,
‘[a]Enemies are coming from a (G)remote country,
And (H)they raise their voices against the cities of Judah.
17 Like watchmen of a field they are (I)against her all around,
Because she has (J)rebelled against Me,’ declares the Lord.

Jeremiah 4:13-17
Holman Christian Standard Bible
13 Look, he advances like clouds;(A)
his chariots are like a storm.(B)
His horses are swifter than eagles.(C)
Woe to us, for we are ruined!(D)
14 Wash the evil from your heart,(E) Jerusalem,
so that you will be delivered.
How long will you harbor
malicious thoughts within you?(F)
15 For a voice announces from Dan,
proclaiming malice from Mount Ephraim.
16 Warn the nations: Look!
Proclaim to Jerusalem:
Those who besiege are coming
from a distant land;(G)
they raise their voices
against the cities of Judah.
17 They have her surrounded(H)
like those who guard a field,
because she has rebelled against Me.(I)
This is the Lord’s declaration.
