Jeremiah 6:25-27

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁵ Do not go out into the fields.
    Do not travel on the roads.
Our enemies are everywhere.
    They have their swords ready to attack us.
    Danger is all around us.’
²⁶ So I say, ‘My dear people, show that you are sorry.
    Wear sackcloth and sit in ashes.
Weep and cry aloud,
    as if your only child had died.
Realize that the enemy's army will soon be here
    and they are ready to destroy us.’
