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.

New King James Version
13 “Behold, he shall come up like clouds,
And (A)his chariots like a whirlwind.
(B)His horses are swifter than eagles.
Woe to us, for we are plundered!”
14 O Jerusalem, (C)wash your heart from wickedness,
That you may be saved.
How long shall your evil thoughts lodge within you?
15 For a voice declares (D)from Dan
And proclaims [a]affliction from Mount Ephraim:
16 “Make mention to the nations,
Yes, proclaim against Jerusalem,
That watchers come from a (E)far country
And raise their voice against the cities of Judah.
17 (F)Like keepers of a field they are against her all around,
Because she has been rebellious against Me,” says the Lord.
