Jeremiah 13:14-16

New International Reader's Version

¹⁵ People of Judah, listen to me.
    Pay attention and don’t be proud.
    The Lord has spoken.
¹⁶ Give glory to the Lord your God.
    Honor him before he sends
    darkness to cover the land.
Do this before you trip and fall
    on the darkened hills.
You hope that light will come.
    But he will turn it into thick darkness.
    He will change it to deep shadows.
