American Standard Version
Jeremiah 8:14-16
American Standard Version
14 Why do we sit still? assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the fortified cities, and let us [a]be silent there; for Jehovah our God hath [b]put us to silence, and given us water of [c]gall to drink, because we have sinned against Jehovah. 15 We looked for peace, but no good came; and for a time of healing, and, behold, dismay! 16 The snorting of his horses is heard from Dan: at the sound of the neighing of his strong ones the whole land trembleth; for they are come, and have devoured the land and all that is in it; the city and those that dwell therein.
