Jeremiah 8:13-15
Holman Christian Standard Bible
13 I will gather them and bring them to an end.[a](A)
This is the Lord’s declaration.
There will be no grapes on the vine,
no figs on the fig tree,
and even the leaf will wither.
Whatever I have given them will be lost to them.
God’s People Unrepentant
14 Why are we just sitting here?
Gather together; let us enter the fortified cities
and perish there,[b]
for the Lord our God has destroyed[c] us.
He has given us poisoned water to drink,(B)
because we have sinned against the Lord.
15 We hoped for peace, but there was nothing good;
for a time of healing, but there was only terror.(C)
