Jeremiah 6:5-7

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁵ Let’s attack at night and destroy its palaces.’ ”

Cut down its trees.
Build up dirt mounds to attack Jerusalem.
This city must be punished.
There is nothing but oppression in it.
⁷ As a well keeps its water fresh,
so Jerusalem keeps its evil fresh.
Violence and destruction can be heard in it.
I see that it is sick and wounded.
