Jeremiah 4:5-7
New King James Version
An Imminent Invasion
5 Declare in Judah and proclaim in Jerusalem, and say:
(A)“Blow the trumpet in the land;
Cry, ‘Gather together,’
And say, (B)‘Assemble yourselves,
And let us go into the fortified cities.’
6 Set up the [a]standard toward Zion.
Take refuge! Do not delay!
For I will bring disaster from the (C)north,
And great destruction.”
7 (D)The lion has come up from his thicket,
And (E)the destroyer of nations is on his way.
He has gone forth from his place
(F)To make your land desolate.
Your cities will be laid waste,
Without inhabitant.

‘Sound the trumpet(B) throughout the land!’

14 “Why do we sit still?
(A)Assemble yourselves,
And let us enter the fortified cities,
And let us be silent there.
For the Lord our God has put us to silence
And given us (B)water[a] of gall to drink,
Because we have sinned against the Lord.
