Jeremiah 6:9-12
World English Bible
9 Yahweh of Armies says, “They will thoroughly glean the remnant of Israel like a vine. Turn again your hand as a grape gatherer into the baskets.”
10 To whom should I speak and testify, that they may hear? Behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they can’t listen. Behold, Yahweh’s word has become a reproach to them. They have no delight in it. 11 Therefore I am full of Yahweh’s wrath. I am weary with holding it in.
“Pour it out on the children in the street,
and on the assembly of young men together;
for even the husband with the wife will be taken,
the aged with him who is full of days.
12 Their houses will be turned to others,
their fields and their wives together;
for I will stretch out my hand on the inhabitants of the land, says Yahweh.”

Wrath on Israel
9 This is what the Lord of Armies says:
Glean the remnant of Israel(A)
as thoroughly as a vine.
Pass your hand once more like a grape gatherer
over the branches.
10 Who can I speak to and give such a warning[a]
that they will listen?
Look, their ear is uncircumcised,[b](B)
so they cannot pay attention.
See, the word of the Lord has become contemptible to them—
they find no pleasure in it.(C)
11 But I am full of the Lord’s wrath;
I am tired of holding it back.(D)
Pour it out on the children in the street,(E)
on the gathering of young men as well.
For both husband and wife will be captured,
the old with the very old.[c]
12 Their houses will be turned over to others,(F)
their fields and wives as well,
for I will stretch out my hand(G)
against the inhabitants of the land.
This is the Lord’s declaration.
