Jeremiah 6:3-5

International Children’s Bible

³ Shepherds with their flocks will come against Jerusalem.
    They will set up their tents all around her.
    Each shepherd will take care of his own section.”
⁴ They say, “Get ready to fight against Jerusalem!
    Get up! We will attack at noon!
But it is already getting late.
    The evening shadows are growing long.
⁵ So get up! We will attack at night.
    We will destroy the strong towers of Jerusalem!”
