Jeremiah 4:4-6

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴ Be circumcised to the Lord, and take away the foreskins of your hearts, ye men of Juda, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my indignation come forth like fire, and burn, and there be none that can quench it: because of the wickedness of your thoughts.

⁵ Declare ye in Juda, and make it heard in Jerusalem: speak, and sound with the trumpet in the land: cry aloud, and say: Assemble yourselves, and let us go into strong cities.

⁶ Set up the standard in Sion. Strengthen yourselves, stay not: for I bring evil from the north, and great destruction.
