From the midst of Jerusalem!
Now blow a trumpet in Tekoa
And raise a signal over

Beth-haccerem;

For evil looks down from the north,
And a great destruction.

Then the Lord said to me, “Out of the north the evil will break forth on all the inhabitants of the land.

“Behold, I am bringing a nation against you from afar, O house of Israel,” declares the Lord.
“It is an enduring nation,
It is an ancient nation,
A nation whose language you do not know,
Nor can you understand what they say.

The sound of a report! Behold, it comes—
A great commotion out of the land of the north—
To make the cities of Judah
A desolation, a haunt of jackals.

behold, I will send and take all the families of the north,’ declares the Lord, ‘and I will send to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, My servant, and will bring them against this land and against its inhabitants and against all these nations round about; and I will utterly destroy them and make them a horror and a hissing, and an everlasting desolation.

“Behold, a people is coming from the north,
And a great nation and many kings
Will be aroused from the remote parts of the earth.
