Jeremiah 6:26-28
Common English Bible
26 My people,
put on funeral clothes and roll in ashes;
weep and wail as for an only child,
because the destroyer will suddenly descend upon us.
Prophet as tester
27 I have made you a tester of metals,
to examine my people[a]
to know and prove their ways.
28 They are tin[b] and iron;
they are headstrong and rebellious.
They live to slander.
They act corruptly—every last one!
