Jeremiah 15:6-8
Living Bible
6 You have forsaken me and turned your backs upon me. Therefore, I will clench my fists against you to destroy you. I am tired of always giving you another chance. 7 I will sift you at the gates of your cities and take from you all that you hold dear, and I will destroy my own people because they refuse to turn back to me from all their evil ways. 8 There shall be countless widows; at noontime I will bring death to the young men and sorrow to their mothers. I will cause anguish and terror to fall upon them suddenly.

Jeremiah 15:6-8
New International Version
6 You have rejected(A) me,” declares the Lord.
“You keep on backsliding.
So I will reach out(B) and destroy you;
I am tired of holding back.(C)
7 I will winnow(D) them with a winnowing fork
at the city gates of the land.
I will bring bereavement(E) and destruction on my people,(F)
for they have not changed their ways.(G)
8 I will make their widows(H) more numerous
than the sand of the sea.
At midday I will bring a destroyer(I)
against the mothers of their young men;
suddenly I will bring down on them
anguish and terror.(J)
