Jeremiah 4:5-7
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
The Invasion from the North
5 Proclaim it in Judah,
in Jerusalem announce it;
Blow the trumpet throughout the land,
call out, “Fill the ranks!”
Say, “Assemble, let us march
to the fortified cities.”
6 Raise the signal—to Zion!
Seek refuge! Don’t stand there!
Disaster I bring from the north,
and great destruction.
7 Up comes the lion from its lair,
the destroyer of nations has set out,
has left its place,
To turn your land into a desolation,
your cities into an uninhabited waste.(A)
Jeremiah 4:5-7
New International Version
Disaster From the North
5 “Announce in Judah and proclaim(A) in Jerusalem and say:
‘Sound the trumpet(B) throughout the land!’
Cry aloud and say:
‘Gather together!
Let us flee to the fortified cities!’(C)
6 Raise the signal(D) to go to Zion!
Flee for safety without delay!
For I am bringing disaster(E) from the north,(F)
even terrible destruction.”
