Jeremiah 4:10-12
Christian Standard Bible
10 I said, “Oh no, Lord God, you have certainly deceived(A) this people and Jerusalem, by announcing, ‘You will have peace,’(B) while a sword is at[a] our throats.”
11 “At that time it will be said to this people and to Jerusalem, ‘A searing wind(C) blows from the barren heights in the wilderness on the way to my dear[b] people. It comes not to winnow or to sift; 12 a wind too strong for this comes at my call.[c] Now I will also pronounce judgments against them.’”(D)

Jeremiah 4:10-12
King James Version
10 Then said I, Ah, Lord God! surely thou hast greatly deceived this people and Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall have peace; whereas the sword reacheth unto the soul.
11 At that time shall it be said to this people and to Jerusalem, A dry wind of the high places in the wilderness toward the daughter of my people, not to fan, nor to cleanse,
12 Even a full wind from those places shall come unto me: now also will I give sentence against them.

10 Then I said, “Ah, Lord God!
(A)Surely You have greatly deceived this people and Jerusalem,
(B)Saying, ‘You shall have peace,’
Whereas the sword reaches to the [a]heart.”

To this people and to Jerusalem,
(C)“A dry wind of the desolate heights blows in the wilderness
Toward the daughter of My people—
Not to fan or to cleanse—
12 A wind too strong for these will come for Me;
Now (D)I will also speak judgment against them.”
