Jeremiah 6:25-27

New American Standard Bible 1995

²⁵^(A)Do not go out into the field
And ^(B)do not walk on the road,
For the enemy has a sword,
^(C)Terror is on every side.
²⁶O daughter of my people, ^(D)put on sackcloth
And ^(E)roll in ashes;
^[a]^(F)Mourn as for an only son,
A lamentation most bitter.
For suddenly the destroyer
Will come upon us.

²⁷“I have ^(G)made you an assayer and a tester among My people,
That you may know and assay their way.”
