RF JER 4:1 The Lord's Answer.
"If Israel will return," the EVER-LIVING says to me, "Return. If you remove your filth from My presence, and do not renew it.
RF JER 4:2 If you swear 'by the life of the EVER-LIVING' in truth for Justice and Right, and cause the Nations to bless Him, and praise Him."
RF JER 4:3 For the EVER-LIVING says this to the men of Judah, and to Jerusalem, "Plough for yourselves, plough! and fear not in sowing.
RF JER 4:4 "Circumcise yourselves to the EVER-LIVING, and put off the disgrace from your hearts, men of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem, for fear My anger should shoot out like fire: and burn unquenchably, because of your vile practices."
RF JER 4:5 War Foretold for Judah.
"Let them inform Judah and Jerusalem, make them hear, and answer, and sound a trumpet in the country. Let them cry aloud and say, 'Collect and come to the fortified towns.
RF JER 4:6 Arise, march to Zion! Fly! Delay not! for I am bringing trouble from the north, and a great crash!
RF JER 4:7 A lion comes up from his place to your country to desolate your cities to an illimitable waste!'"
RF JER 4:8 Because of this put on sackcloth! Lament, and howl, because the hot anger of the LORD will not turn from us."
RF JER 4:9 And it shall happen at that time," says the LORD, "the heart of the king, and the heart of his nobles will be desolate; the Priests and the Preachers be astonished,
RF JER 4:10 and say, 'Alas! ALMIGHTY LORD! why have You deceived this People, and Jerusalem, saying, Peace shall come to you, when the sword approaches for our life?'"
RF JER 4:11 At that time He will order from the desert a wind with burning lips against this People, against the daughter of My People. Not by spurts, and not by puffs:
RF JER 4:12 a full, howling wind shall go rushing from Me. I also will pronounce their doom!
RF JER 4:13 See! He raises clouds, and whirl-winds for His swift chariot, and eagles for His horses! They are for us! They assail us!"
RF JER 4:14 Jerusalem, wash your heart from sin, that I may save you from the death awaiting your fault in your breast.
RF JER 4:15 For a voice informs from Midian, and a report arises from Mount Ephraim.
RF JER 4:16 The nations perceive it; the Guards at Jerusalem even hear the comers from the land afar, and they send their voices to the cities of Judah.
RF JER 4:17 There are enemies watching around her,—for she rebelled from Me.
RF JER 4:18 Your ways, and your proceedings produced these sufferings for you,—for you are a rebel;—diseased to your heart!"
RF JER 4:19 Jeremiah's Lament at the Prospect.
My bowels, my bowels tremble! My heart reels, my heart mourns! I cannot rest for I have heard the voice of a trumpet! Oh, my soul! it is the sound of war.
RF JER 4:20 Crash upon crash it roars! For all the open country is destroyed,—suddenly they destroy the tents. Yes, my tent!
RF JER 4:21 Till my death I shall see the march! I shall hear the blast of the trumpets!
RF JER 4:22 For my foolish People do not recognize my warnings! They are children of folly! They never reflect! They are wise for evil;—but cannot recognize good!
RF JER 4:23 I looked to the earth, and it was desolate, and saw it convulsed and empty! And to the skies, and there was no light!
RF JER 4:24 I looked to the mountains, and saw earthquakes, and all the hills shook!
RF JER 4:25 I looked, but there was no man! and all the birds of the skies had flown!
RF JER 4:26 I looked, and Carmel was a Desert, and all her villages thrown down, before the Presence of the EVER-LIVING!-before the anger in His face!
RF JER 4:27 Then the EVER-LIVING said this:—"All the land shall be desolate,—and I will not prevent it.
RF JER 4:28 Therefore the earth shall faint, and the skies shall be black, because I have uttered my intentions, and shall not alter, or turn back from them."
RF JER 4:29 They come with the tramp of a horse, with the leap of a bow, past every city. They advance in clouds with slings! Every village is abandoned, there is not a man remaining!
RF JER 4:30 Now, you harridan,—what will you do? Though you clothe yourself in scarlet; though your ornaments are jewels of gold,—though you tear your eyes with paint, you will beautify yourself in vain! The profligates your soul seeks will despise you!
RF JER 4:31 For I hear the cry of a childing woman, the distress of a first birth, the wail of the bedizened daughter of Zion! She spreads out her hands! "Woe to me now, for my life is exhausted by murderers!"
