Jeremiah 4:27-29

GOD’S WORD Translation

The whole earth will be ruined,
although I will not destroy it completely.
²⁸ The earth will mourn, and the sky will grow black.
I have spoken, and I have planned it.
I won’t change my plans, and I won’t turn back.
²⁹ All the people in the city will flee
at the sound of riders and archers.
They will go off into the thickets
and climb among the rocks.
The entire city will be abandoned, and no one will live in it.
