Jeremiah 6:2-6

6:2

I have likened
<01820> (8804)

the daughter
<01323>

of Zion
<06726>

to a comely
<05116>

and delicate
<06026> (8794)

[woman]. {comely: or, dwelling at home}

6:3

The shepherds
<07462> (8802)

with their flocks
<05739>

shall come
<0935> (8799)

unto her; they shall pitch
<08628> (8804)

[their] tents
<0168>

against her round about
<05439>_;

they shall feed
<07462> (8804)

every one
<0376>

in his place
<03027>_.

6:4

Prepare
<06942> (8761)

ye war
<04421>

against her; arise
<06965> (8798)_,

and let us go up
<05927> (8799)

at noon
<06672>_.

Woe
<0188>

unto us! for the day
<03117>

goeth away
<06437> (8804)_,

for the shadows
<06752>

of the evening
<06153>

are stretched out
<05186> (8735)_.

6:5

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

and let us go
<05927> (8799)

by night
<03915>_,

and let us destroy
<07843> (8686)

her palaces
<0759>_.

6:6

For thus hath the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

said
<0559> (8804)_,

Hew ye down
<03772> (8798)

trees
<06097>_,

and cast
<08210> (8798)

a mount
<05550>

against Jerusalem
<03389>_:

this [is] the city
<05892>

to be visited
<06485> (8717)_;

she [is] wholly oppression
<06233>

in the midst
<07130>

of her. {cast...: or, pour out the engine of shot}
