Jeremiah 6:10-12
Amplified Bible
10
To whom shall I (Jeremiah) speak and give warning
That they may hear?
Behold, their ears are [a]closed [absolutely deaf to God]
And they cannot listen.
Behold, the word of the Lord has become a reprimand and an object of scorn to them;
They have no delight in it.(A)
11
But I am full of the wrath (judgment) of the Lord;
I am tired of restraining it.
“[I will] pour it out on the children in the street
And on the young men gathered together;
For both the husband and wife shall be taken,
The aged and the very old [though full of days they are not exempt from judgment].
12
“Their houses shall be turned over to others,
Their fields and their wives together;
For I will stretch out My hand
Against the inhabitants of the land,” says the Lord.

Jeremiah 6:10-12
New International Version
10 To whom can I speak and give warning?
Who will listen(A) to me?
Their ears are closed[a](B)
so they cannot hear.(C)
The word(D) of the Lord is offensive to them;
they find no pleasure in it.
11 But I am full of the wrath(E) of the Lord,
and I cannot hold it in.(F)
“Pour it out on the children in the street
and on the young men(G) gathered together;
both husband and wife will be caught in it,
and the old, those weighed down with years.(H)
12 Their houses will be turned over to others,(I)
together with their fields and their wives,(J)
when I stretch out my hand(K)
against those who live in the land,”
declares the Lord.
