Jeremiah 25:32-34
Contemporary English Version
Disaster Is Coming
32 The Lord All-Powerful says:
You can see disaster spreading
from far across the earth,
from nation to nation
like a horrible storm.
33 When it strikes, I will kill so many people that their bodies will cover the ground like manure. No one will be left to bury them or to mourn.
The Leaders of Judah Will Be Punished
34 The Lord's people are his flock,
and you leaders
were the shepherds.
But now it's your turn
to be butchered like sheep.
You'll shatter like fine pottery
dropped on the floor.[a]
So roll on the ground,
crying and mourning.
Footnotes
- 25.34 You'll shatter … floor: One possible meaning for the difficult Hebrew text.
