Jeremiah 4:6-9

4:6

Set up
<05375> (8798)

the standard
<05251>

toward Zion
<06726>_:

retire
<05756> (8685)_,

stay
<05975> (8799)

not: for I will bring
<0935> (8688)

evil
<07451>

from the north
<06828>_,

and a great
<01419>

destruction
<07667>_.

{retire: or, strengthen} {destruction: Heb. breaking}

4:7

The lion
<0738>

is come up
<05927> (8804)

from his thicket
<05441>_,

and the destroyer
<07843> (8688)

of the Gentiles
<01471>

is on his way
<05265> (8804)_;

he is gone forth
<03318> (8804)

from his place
<04725>

to make
<07760> (8800)

thy land
<0776>

desolate
<08047>_;

[and] thy cities
<05892>

shall be laid waste
<05327> (8799)_,

without an inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_.

4:8

For this gird
<02296> (8798)

you with sackcloth
<08242>_,

lament
<05594> (8798)

and howl
<03213> (8685)_:

for the fierce
<02740>

anger
<0639>

of the LORD
<03068>

is not turned back
<07725> (8804)

from us.

4:9

And it shall come to pass at that day
<03117>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

[that] the heart
<03820>

of the king
<04428>

shall perish
<06> (8799)_,

and the heart
<03820>

of the princes
<08269>_;

and the priests
<03548>

shall be astonished
<08074> (8738)_,

and the prophets
<05030>

shall wonder
<08539> (8799)_.
