Jeremiah 4:15-17

New International Reader's Version

¹⁵ A voice is speaking all the way from the city of Dan.
    From the hills of Ephraim it announces
    that trouble is coming.
¹⁶ “Tell the nations.
    Make an announcement concerning Jerusalem.
Say, ‘An army will attack Judah.
    It is coming from a land far away.
It will shout a war cry
    against the cities of Judah.
¹⁷ It will surround them like people who guard a field.
    Judah has refused to obey me,’ ”
    announces the Lord.
