Jeremiah 6:26-28

21st Century King James Version

²⁶ O daughter of my people, gird thee with sackcloth, and wallow thyself in ashes. Make thee mourning, as for an only son, most bitter lamentation; for the despoiler shall suddenly come upon us.

²⁷ “I have set thee as a tower and a fortress among My people, that thou mayest know and try their way.

²⁸ They are all grievous revolters, walking with slanders; they are brass and iron; they are all corrupters.
