Jeremiah 4:6-9 Lift up a signal toward Zion, bring yourselves to safety; you must not remain standing, for I am bringing evil from the north, and a great destruction.

LEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ Lift up a signal toward Zion, bring yourselves to safety; you must not remain standing, for I am bringing evil from the north, and a great destruction. ⁷ A lion has gone up from his thicket, and a destroyer of nations has set out. He has gone out from his place to make your land as a horror, your cities will go to ruin _⌊without_⌋* inhabitant. ⁸ Because of this gird yourselves with sackcloth,* lament and wail, for _⌊the burning anger_⌋* of Yahweh has not turned back from us. ⁹ And then on that day," _⌊declares_⌋* Yahweh, "the heart of the king and the heart of the officials will be destroyed, and the priests will be appalled, and the prophets will be astonished."
