Jeremiah 4:3-4
Lexham English Bible
3 For thus says Yahweh
to the men[a] of Judah and to Jerusalem,
“Break up for yourselves prepared virgin soil,
and you must not sow among thornbushes.
4 Circumcise yourselves to Yahweh,
and remove the foreskins of your hearts,[b]
men[c] of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem,
lest my wrath goes forth like the fire and burns,
and there is no one who extinguishes it,[d]
because of the evil of your deeds.”

“[a](A)Break up your uncultivated ground,
