Jeremiah 6:26

A Cruel Nation From The North

²⁵ Don't go out into the field, and don't travel on the road, because the enemy has a sword, and terror is on every side. ²⁶ Daughter of my people, put on sackcloth and roll in ashes. Mourn with bitter wailing, as one mourns at the death of an only son. For the destroyer will come on us suddenly. ²⁷ "I've made you an assayer of my people, as well as a fortress. You know how to test their way."

Beloved Son

Put on
