Jeremiah 4:3-4
New American Standard Bible
3 For this is what the Lord says to the men of Judah and to Jerusalem:
“[a](A)Break up your uncultivated ground,
And (B)do not sow among thorns.
4 (C)Circumcise yourselves to the Lord
And remove the foreskins of your hearts,
Men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem,
Or else My (D)wrath will spread like fire
And burn with (E)no one to quench it,
Because of the evil of your deeds.”

Coming Judgment against Judah
3 This is what the Lord says to the people of Judah and Jerusalem:
“Plow up the hard ground of your hearts!
Do not waste your good seed among thorns.
4 O people of Judah and Jerusalem,
surrender your pride and power.
Change your hearts before the Lord,[a]
or my anger will burn like an unquenchable fire
because of all your sins.
