15 For behold, I am (A)calling
All the families of the kingdoms of the north,” says the Lord;
“They shall come and (B)each one set his throne
At the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem,
Against all its walls all around,
And against all the cities of Judah.
16 I will utter My judgments
Against them concerning all their wickedness,
Because (C)they have forsaken Me,
Burned (D)incense to other gods,
And worshiped the works of their own (E)hands.

17 “Therefore (F)prepare yourself and arise,
And speak to them all that I command you.
(G)Do not be dismayed before their faces,
Lest I dismay you before them.
