Jeremiah 5:14-16
New Catholic Bible
14 Therefore, the Lord, the God of hosts, has this to say:
Because you have said these things,
my words will become a fire in your mouth,
and I will make this people like wood
that the fire will consume.
15 Be forewarned that I will bring against you
a nation from a great distance,
O house of Israel, says the Lord—
a long-existent nation,
a nation founded long ago,
a people whose language you do not know
and whose speech you cannot understand.
16 The quivers of these people are like open graves;
all of them are mighty warriors.

“I am bringing a distant nation(D) against you—

a people whose language(E) you do not know,
whose speech you do not understand.

all of them are mighty warriors.
