New Testament

Jeremiah 4:15-19 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

15. A voice is speaking all the way from the city of Dan. From the hills of Ephraim it announces that trouble is coming.

16. "Tell the nations. Warn Jerusalem. Say, 'An army will attack you. It is coming from a land far away. It will shout a war cry against the cities of Judah.

17. It will surround them like people who guard a field. Judah has refused to obey me,' " announces the Lord.

18. "The army will attack you because of your conduct and actions. That is how you will be punished. It will be so bitter! It will cut deep down into your hearts!"

19. I'm suffering! I'm really suffering! I'm hurting badly. My heart is suffering so much! It's pounding inside me. I can't keep silent. I've heard the sound of trumpets. I've heard the battle cry.
