Jeremiah 4:6

An Invasion From The North

⁵ Declare in Judah and proclaim in Jerusalem, and say,
“Blow the trumpet in the land;
Cry aloud and say,
‘Assemble yourselves, and let us go
Into the fortified cities.’
⁶ “Lift up a standard toward Zion!
Seek refuge, do not stand still,
For I am bringing evil from the north,
And 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 a waste.
Your cities will be ruins
Without inhabitant.

Her images have been put to shame, her idols have been shattered.’

And hear the sound of the trumpet?

Bring up the horses like bristly locusts.

A wail from the Second Quarter,
And a loud crash from the hills.
