quench it, because of the evil of your doings. 004:005 Declare you in Judah, and publish in Jerusalem; and say, Blow you the trumpet in the land: cry aloud and say, Assemble yourselves, and let us go into the fortified cities. 004:006 Set up a standard toward Zion: flee for safety, don't stay; for I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction. 004:007 A lion is gone up from his thicket, and a destroyer of nations; he is on his way, he is gone forth from his place, to make your land desolate, that your cities be laid waste, without inhabitant. 004:008 For this gird you with sackcloth, lament and wail; for the fierce anger of Yahweh hasn't turned back from us. 004:009 It shall happen at that day, says Yahweh, that the heart of the king shall perish, and the heart of the princes; and the priests shall be astonished, and the prophets shall wonder. 004:010 Then said I, Ah, Lord Yahweh! surely you have greatly deceived this people and Jerusalem, saying, You shall have peace; whereas the sword reaches to the life. 004:011 At that time shall it be said to this people and to Jerusalem, A hot wind from the bare heights in the wilderness toward the daughter of my people, not to winnow, nor to cleanse; 004:012 a full wind from these shall come for me: now will I also utter judgments against them. 004:013 Behold, he shall come up as clouds, and his chariots [shall be] as the whirlwind: his horses are swifter than eagles. Woe to us! for we are ruined. 004:014 Jerusalem, wash your heart from wickedness, that you may be saved. How long shall your evil thoughts lodge within you? 004:015 For a voice declares from Dan, and publishes evil from the hills of Ephraim: 004:016 make you mention to the nations; behold, publish against Jerusalem, [that] watchers come from a far country, and give out their voice against the cities of Judah. 004:017 As keepers of a field are they against her round about, because she has been rebellious against me, says Yahweh. 004:018 Your way and your doings have procured these things to you; this is your wickedness; for it is bitter, for it reaches to your heart. 004:019 My anguish, my anguish! I am pained at my very heart; my heart is disquieted in me; I can't hold my peace; because you have heard, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of war. 004:020 Destruction on destruction is cried; for the whole land is laid waste: suddenly are my tents destroyed, [and] my curtains in a moment. 004:021 How long shall I see the standard, and hear the sound of the trumpet? 004:022 For my people are foolish, they don't know me; they are foolish children, and they have no understanding; they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.
