Jeremiah 5:14-16
Authorized (King James) Version
14 Wherefore thus saith the Lord God of hosts,
Because ye speak this word,
behold, I will make my words in thy mouth fire,
and this people wood, and it shall devour them.
15 Lo, I will bring a nation upon you from far,
O house of Israel, saith the Lord:
it is a mighty nation, it is an ancient nation,
a nation whose language thou knowest not,
neither understandest what they say.
16 Their quiver is as an open sepulchre,
they are all mighty men.
Jeremiah 5:14-16
New International Version
14 Therefore this is what the Lord God Almighty says:
“Because the people have spoken these words,
I will make my words in your mouth(A) a fire(B)
and these people the wood it consumes.(C)
15 People of Israel,” declares the Lord,
“I am bringing a distant nation(D) against you—
an ancient and enduring nation,
a people whose language(E) you do not know,
whose speech you do not understand.
16 Their quivers(F) are like an open grave;
all of them are mighty warriors.
