Jeremiah 6:1-2
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
Chapter 6
The Enemy at the Gates
1 Seek refuge, Benjaminites,
from the midst of Jerusalem!
Blow the trumpet in Tekoa,
raise a signal over Beth-haccherem;
For disaster threatens from the north,
and mighty destruction.(A)
2 Lovely and delicate
daughter Zion, you are ruined!
