Jeremiah 4:13-17

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹³ Look! He comes up like clouds,
    his chariots like the whirlwind;
his horses are swifter than eagles—
    woe to us, for we are ruined!^(A)
14 O Jerusalem, wash your heart clean of wickedness
    so that you may be saved.
How long shall your evil schemes
    lodge within you?^(B)
15 For a voice declares from Dan
    and proclaims disaster from Mount Ephraim.
¹⁶ Tell the nations, “Here they are!”
    Proclaim against Jerusalem,
“Besiegers come from a distant land;
    they shout against the cities of Judah.^(C)
17 They have closed in around her like watchers of a field
    because she has rebelled against me,
            says the Lord.^(D)
