Jeremiah 5:16-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁶ Their quiver is as an open sepulchre, they are all valiant.

¹⁷ And they shall eat up thy corn, and thy bread: they shall devour thy sons, and thy daughters: they shall eat up thy flocks, and thy herds: they shall eat thy vineyards, and thy figs: and with the sword they shall destroy thy strong cities, wherein thou trustest.

¹⁸ Nevertheless in those days, saith the Lord, I will not bring you to utter destruction.
