Jeremiah 4:15-20 »A message is heard from Dan. A report of disaster comes from the mountains of Ephraim.

NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ »A message is heard from Dan. A report of disaster comes from the mountains of Ephraim. ¹⁶ »Warn the nations about this. Tell it to Jerusalem. Hostile troops are coming from a distant country. They shout battle cries against the cities of Judah.« ¹⁷ »They surround Judah like men guarding a field, because Judah has rebelled against me,« declares Jehovah. ¹⁸ »You brought this on yourself. This is your punishment. It is bitter. It breaks your heart.« ¹⁹ O my anguish, my anguish! I writhe in pain. My heart pounds in side of me. My heart is pounding! I cannot keep quiet because I hear a ram's horn sounding the alarm for war. ²⁰ Destruction upon destruction is proclaimed. The whole land is ruined. My tents are suddenly destroyed. Their curtains are torn in an instant.
