Jeremiah 8:14

The Nation Longs For Yahweh's Help

¹³ I utterly consume them, an affirmation of Jehovah, There are no grapes in the vine, Yea, there are no figs in the fig-tree, And the leaf hath faded, And the strength they have passeth from them. ¹⁴ Wherefore are we sitting still? Be gathered, and we go in to the fenced cities, And we are silent there, For Jehovah our God hath made us silent, Yea, He causeth us to drink water of gall, For we have sinned against Jehovah. ¹⁵ Looking for peace -- and there is no good, For a time of healing, and lo, terror.
