Jeremiah 6:2-4

Common English Bible

² You are like a lovely pasture, Daughter Zion.^[a]
3     Shepherds come to her with their flocks.
    They pitch their tents around her
        and graze in their place.
⁴ “Prepare for battle against her;
    get ready; let’s attack by noon!
Oh, no! Daylight is fading,
    and the evening shadows lengthen.
