Jeremiah Laments over the Coming Destruction

8:14 The people say,

“Why are we just sitting here?

Let us gather together inside the fortified cities.

Let us at least die there fighting,

since the Lord our God has condemned us to die.

He has condemned us to drink the poison waters of judgment

because we have sinned against him.

Jeremiah 23:15

23:15 So then I, the Lord who rules over all,

have something to say concerning the prophets of Jerusalem:

‘I will make these prophets eat the bitter food of suffering

and drink the poison water of judgment.

For the prophets of Jerusalem are the reason

that ungodliness has spread throughout the land.’”
