Jeremiah 6:23-25

Jubilee Bible 2000

²³ They shall lay hold on bow and spear; they are cruel, and they shall have no mercy; their voice shall roar like the sea; and they shall ride upon horses set in array as men for war against thee, O daughter of Zion.

²⁴ We have heard the fame thereof; our hands wax feeble; anguish has taken hold of us, and pain as of a woman in travail.

²⁵ Do not go forth into the field, nor walk by the way; for the sword of the enemy and fear is on every side.
