Jeremiah 4:4-6
EasyEnglish Bible
4 Give yourselves to me, the Lord,
and agree to serve me faithfully.
Remove from your lives everything that is not right,
so that you obey my covenant.
If you do not do that,
I will be very angry with you.
I will punish you like a hot fire that destroys things.
Nobody will be able to stop my anger.
People of Judah and Jerusalem,
if you continue to do wicked things,
I will certainly punish you.’
An enemy will attack from the north
5 The Lord said:
‘Shout this message to the people in Jerusalem and in all Judah:
“Make a loud noise with trumpets in all the land!”
Shout loudly, “Come together!
We must all run to the cities with strong walls!”
6 Lift up a flag that shows the way to Zion!
Run quickly to a safe place! Do not wait!
I will soon bring great trouble from the north.
An enemy will destroy your country.
Jeremiah 4:4-6
New International Version
4 Circumcise yourselves to the Lord,
circumcise your hearts,(A)
you people of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem,
or my wrath(B) will flare up and burn like fire(C)
because of the evil(D) you have done—
burn with no one to quench(E) it.
Disaster From the North
5 “Announce in Judah and proclaim(F) in Jerusalem and say:
‘Sound the trumpet(G) throughout the land!’
Cry aloud and say:
‘Gather together!
Let us flee to the fortified cities!’(H)
6 Raise the signal(I) to go to Zion!
Flee for safety without delay!
For I am bringing disaster(J) from the north,(K)
even terrible destruction.”
