Jeremiah 6:5-7

Christian Standard Bible

⁵ Rise up, let’s attack by night.
Let’s destroy her fortresses.”

Cut down the trees;^(A)
raise a siege ramp against Jerusalem.
This city must be punished.
There is nothing but oppression within her.^(B)
7 As a well gushes out its water,
so she pours out her evil.^[a]
Violence and destruction^(C) resound in her.
Sickness and wounds keep coming to my attention.
