Jeremiah 4:5-9
New Living Translation
5 “Shout to Judah, and broadcast to Jerusalem!
Tell them to sound the alarm throughout the land:
‘Run for your lives!
Flee to the fortified cities!’
6 Raise a signal flag as a warning for Jerusalem[a]:
‘Flee now! Do not delay!’
For I am bringing terrible destruction upon you
from the north.”
7 A lion stalks from its den,
a destroyer of nations.
It has left its lair and is headed your way.
It’s going to devastate your land!
Your towns will lie in ruins,
with no one living in them anymore.
8 So put on clothes of mourning
and weep with broken hearts,
for the fierce anger of the Lord
is still upon us.
9 “In that day,” says the Lord,
“the king and the officials will tremble in fear.
The priests will be struck with horror,
and the prophets will be appalled.”

Jeremiah 4:5-9
English Standard Version
Disaster from the North
5 Declare in Judah, and proclaim in Jerusalem, and say,
(A)“Blow the trumpet through the land;
cry aloud and say,
(B)‘Assemble, and let us go
into the fortified cities!’
6 (C)Raise a standard toward Zion,
flee for safety, stay not,
for I bring disaster from (D)the north,
(E)and great destruction.
7 (F)A lion has gone up from his thicket,
a destroyer of nations has set out;
he has gone out from his place
to make your land a waste;
your cities will be ruins
(G)without inhabitant.
8 For this (H)put on sackcloth,
lament and wail,
for (I)the fierce anger of the Lord
has not turned back from us.”
9 “In that day, declares the Lord, (J)courage shall fail both king and officials. The priests shall be appalled and the prophets astounded.”
