Jeremiah 6:5-7
New Catholic Bible
5 “On your feet! Let us attack by night
and destroy her palaces.”
6 These are the words of the Lord of hosts:
Cut down her trees
and raise up siege-ramps against Jerusalem.
This city must be punished,
for oppression is rampant within her.
7 As a well keeps its water fresh,
so she keeps fresh her wickedness.
Sounds of violence and destruction resound within her;
sickness and wounds are never out of my sight.
