Jeremiah 4:8-10

New Living Translation

⁸ So put on clothes of mourning
    and weep with broken hearts,
for the fierce anger of the Lord
    is still upon us.

⁹ “In that day,” says the Lord,
    “the king and the officials will tremble in fear.
The priests will be struck with horror,
    and the prophets will be appalled.”

¹⁰ Then I said, “O Sovereign Lord,
    the people have been deceived by what you said,
for you promised peace for Jerusalem.
    But the sword is held at their throats!”
