Jeremiah 6:4-6
New King James Version
4 “Prepare(A) war against her;
Arise, and let us go up (B)at noon.
Woe to us, for the day goes away,
For the shadows of the evening are lengthening.
5 Arise, and let us go by night,
And let us destroy her palaces.”
6 For thus has the Lord of hosts said:
“Cut down trees,
And build a mound against Jerusalem.
This is the city to be punished.
She is full of oppression in her midst.
Jeremiah 6:4-6
English Standard Version
4 (A)“Prepare war against her;
arise, and let us attack (B)at noon!
Woe to us, for the day declines,
for the shadows of evening lengthen!
5 Arise, and let us attack by night
and destroy her palaces!”
6 For thus says the Lord of hosts:
(C)“Cut down her trees;
(D)cast up a siege mound against Jerusalem.
This is the city that must be (E)punished;
there is nothing but oppression within her.
