Jeremiah 13:16-18
1599 Geneva Bible
16 Give glory to the Lord your God before he bring [a]darkness, and or ever your feet stumble in the dark mountains, and while you look for [b]light, he turn it into the shadow of death and make it as darkness.
17 But if ye will not hear this, my soul shall [c]weep in secret for your pride, and mine eye shall weep and drop down tears, because the Lord’s flock is carried away captive.
18 Say unto the [d]King and to the Queen: Humble yourselves, sit down, for the crown of your glory shall come down from your heads.
