Jeremiah 5:14-16
1599 Geneva Bible
14 Wherefore thus saith the Lord God of hosts, Because ye speak such words, behold, I will put my words into [a]thy mouth, like a fire, and this people shall be as wood, and it shall devour them.
15 Lo, I will bring a nation upon you [b]from far, O house of Israel, saith the Lord, which is a mighty nation, and an ancient nation, a nation whose language thou knowest not, neither understandest what they say.
16 Whose quiver is as an [c]open sepulcher: they are all very strong.
