Jeremiah 4:28-30
Christian Standard Bible
28 Because of this, the earth will mourn;(A)
the skies above will grow dark.(B)
I have spoken; I have planned,
and I will not relent or turn back from it.”(C)
29 Every city flees(D)
at the sound of the horseman and the archer.
They enter the thickets
and climb among the rocks.(E)
Every city is abandoned;
no inhabitant is left.
30 And you, devastated one, what are you doing(F)
that you dress yourself in scarlet,
that you adorn yourself with gold jewelry,
that you enhance your eyes with makeup?(G)
You beautify yourself for nothing.
Your lovers reject you;(H)
they intend to take your life.(I)
