Jeremiah 8:13-15
Darby Translation
13 I will utterly take them away, saith Jehovah: there are no grapes on the vine, nor figs on the fig-tree; and the leaf is faded: and I will give them up to those that shall pass over them.
14 Why do we sit still? Assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the fenced cities, and let us be silent there: for Jehovah our God hath put us to silence, and given us water of gall to drink, because we have sinned against Jehovah.
15 Peace is looked for, and there is no good; a time of healing, and behold, terror.

Jeremiah 8:13-15
New International Version
13 “‘I will take away their harvest,
declares the Lord.
There will be no grapes on the vine.(A)
There will be no figs(B) on the tree,
and their leaves will wither.(C)
What I have given them
will be taken(D) from them.[a]’”
14 Why are we sitting here?
Gather together!
Let us flee to the fortified cities(E)
and perish there!
For the Lord our God has doomed us to perish
and given us poisoned water(F) to drink,
because we have sinned(G) against him.
15 We hoped for peace(H)
but no good has come,
for a time of healing
but there is only terror.(I)
