Jeremiah 6:25-27

The Voice

²⁵ Do not go into the field alone.
    Do not walk the streets, for our enemy is armed and approaching fast.
    Terror is everywhere we turn.
²⁶ You who are my people, weep with me for it is time.
    Put on sackcloth and roll in ashes.
Cry as you would for the loss of an only child.
    The time for bitter tears has come.
The destroyer is descending upon us quickly,
    and the days of sadness will soon begin.
