Jeremiah 4:6-8

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁶ Raise a signal flag to flee to Zion!
Flee for safety!
Do not stay behind!
I am bringing disaster from the north.
I am bringing terrible destruction.
⁷ A lion has come out of his den.
A destroyer of nations has set out.
He has come out of his lair to lay waste to the land.
Your cities will lie in ruins with no one living in them.
⁸ So put on sackcloth, mourn and wail,
because the burning anger of the Lord has not turned away from us.
