Jeremiah 6:22-26 - A Cruel Nation From The North
22 So says Jehovah, Behold, a people comes from the north country, and a great nation shall be stirred from the sides of the earth. 23 They shall lay hold on bow and spear; they are cruel and have no mercy; their voice roars like the sea; and they ride on horses, set in order like a man for war against you, O daughter of Zion.
24 We have heard the rumor of it; our hands become feeble; anguish has taken hold of us, and pain, like a woman in labor. 25 Do not go out into the field, nor walk by the way; for the sword of the enemy and fear are on every side. 26 O daughter of my people, put on sackcloth, and wallow in ashes; make mourning for yourself, as for an only son, most bitter weeping; for the ravager shall suddenly come on us.
