¹³Look! He advances like the clouds,^(A)
    his chariots^(B) come like a whirlwind,^(C)
his horses^(D) are swifter than eagles.^(E)
    Woe to us! We are ruined!^(F)
¹⁴Jerusalem, wash^(G) the evil from your heart and be saved.^(H)
    How long^(I) will you harbor wicked thoughts?
¹⁵A voice is announcing from Dan,^(J)
    proclaiming disaster from the hills of Ephraim.^(K)

    proclaim concerning Jerusalem:
‘A besieging army is coming from a distant land,^(L)
    raising a war cry^(M) against the cities of Judah.^(N)
¹⁷They surround^(O) her like men guarding a field,
    because she has rebelled^(P) against me,’”

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!”

¹⁴Wash your heart from evil, Jerusalem,
So that you may be saved.
How long will your ^(E)wicked thoughts
Lodge within you?
¹⁵For 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.
¹⁷Like watchmen of a field they are ^(I)against her all around,
Because she has ^(J)rebelled against Me,’ declares the Lord.
