Jeremiah 8:14-17
Legacy Standard Bible
14 Why are we sitting still?
(A)Gather yourselves, and let us (B)go into the fortified cities
And let us be silent there
Because Yahweh our God has silenced us
And given us [a](C)poisoned water to drink,
For (D)we have sinned against Yahweh.
15 We (E)waited for peace, but there was no good;
For a time of healing, but behold, terror!
16 From (F)Dan is heard the snorting of his horses;
At the sound of the neighing of his (G)valiant steeds
The whole land quakes;
And they come and (H)devour the land as well as its fullness,
The city and its inhabitants.
17 “For behold, I am (I)sending serpents against you,
Vipers, for which there is (J)no charm,
And they will bite you,” declares Yahweh.

Jeremiah 8:14-17
Revised Standard Version
14 Why do we sit still?
Gather together, let us go into the fortified cities
and perish there;
for the Lord our God has doomed us to perish,
and has given us poisoned water to drink,
because we have sinned against the Lord.
15 We looked for peace, but no good came,
for a time of healing, but behold, terror.
16 “The snorting of their horses is heard from Dan;
at the sound of the neighing of their stallions
the whole land quakes.
They come and devour the land and all that fills it,
the city and those who dwell in it.
17 For behold, I am sending among you serpents,
adders which cannot be charmed,
and they shall bite you,”
says the Lord.
