Jeremiah 4:10-12

International Children’s Bible

¹⁰ Then I, Jeremiah, said, “Lord God, you have tricked the people of Judah and Jerusalem. You said, ‘You will have peace.’ But now the sword is pointing at our throats!”

¹¹ At that time this message will be given to Judah and Jerusalem: “A hot wind blows from the bare hilltops. It comes out of the desert toward the Lord’s people. It is not like the gentle wind farmers use to separate grain from chaff. ¹² It’s a stronger wind than that. And it comes from the Lord. Now he will announce his judgment against the people of Judah.”
