Jeremiah 4:8-10
Legacy Standard Bible
8 For this, (A)I gird myself with sackcloth,
Lament and wail;
For the (B)burning anger of Yahweh
Has not turned back from us.”
9 “It will be in that day,” declares Yahweh, “that the (C)heart of the king and the heart of the princes will perish; and the priests will be appalled, and the (D)prophets will be astonished.”
10 Then I said, “Ah, Lord Yahweh! Surely You have utterly (E)deceived this people and Jerusalem, saying, ‘(F)You will have peace’; whereas a sword touches the [a]throat.”

Jeremiah 4:8-10
New International Version
8 So put on sackcloth,(A)
lament(B) and wail,
for the fierce anger(C) of the Lord
has not turned away from us.
9 “In that day,” declares the Lord,
“the king and the officials will lose heart,(D)
the priests will be horrified,
and the prophets will be appalled.”(E)
10 Then I said, “Alas, Sovereign Lord! How completely you have deceived(F) this people and Jerusalem by saying, ‘You will have peace,’(G) when the sword is at our throats!”
