Jeremiah 8:14-16

Complete Jewish Bible

¹⁴ “Why are we sitting still? Assemble!
Let’s enter the fortified cities
and meet our doom there!
For Adonai our God has doomed us;
he has given us bitter water to drink,
because we have sinned against Adonai.
¹⁵ When we look for peace, nothing good comes;
when we seek a time of healing, instead there is terror.”

¹⁶ From Dan can be heard the snorting of his horses;
when his stallions neigh, the whole land trembles.
For they come devouring the land and all in it,
the city and those who dwell there.
