Jeremiah 15:6-8
Revised Standard Version
Jeremiah 15:6-8
Revised Standard Version
6 You have rejected me, says the Lord,
you keep going backward;
so I have stretched out my hand against you and destroyed you;—
I am weary of relenting.
7 I have winnowed them with a winnowing fork
in the gates of the land;
I have bereaved them, I have destroyed my people;
they did not turn from their ways.
8 I have made their widows more in number
than the sand of the seas;
I have brought against the mothers of young men
a destroyer at noonday;
I have made anguish and terror
fall upon them suddenly.
