This is what the Lord of armies says:
“They will (A)thoroughly glean the (B)remnant of Israel like the vine;
Pass your hand over the branches again
Like a grape gatherer.”
10 To whom shall I speak and give warning,
That they may hear?
Behold, their (C)ears are [a]closed
And they cannot listen.
Behold, (D)the word of the Lord has become for them a rebuke;
They take no delight in it.
11 But I am (E)full of the wrath of the Lord;
I am (F)weary of holding it in.
(G)Pour it out on the children in the street
And on the [b]gathering of young men together;
For both husband and wife shall be taken,
The old [c]and the very old.
12 Their (H)houses shall be turned over to others,
Their fields and their wives together;
For I will (I)stretch out My hand
Against the inhabitants of the land,” declares the Lord.

  3. Jeremiah 6:11 Lit with fullness of days

Thus says the Lord of hosts:
Glean[a] thoroughly as a vine
    the remnant of Israel;
like a grape gatherer, pass your hand again
    over its branches.(A)

10 To whom shall I speak and give warning,
    that they may hear?
See, their ears are closed;[b]
    they cannot listen.
The word of the Lord is to them an object of scorn;
    they take no pleasure in it.(B)
11 But I am full of the wrath of the Lord;
    I am weary of holding it in.

Pour it out on the children in the street
    and on the gatherings of young men as well;
both husband and wife shall be taken,
    the elderly and those full of days.(C)
12 Their houses shall be turned over to others,
    their fields and wives together;
for I will stretch out my hand
    against the inhabitants of the land,
            says the Lord.(D)
