15. For a voice is declaring from Dan, and is proclaiming trouble from Mount Ephrayim:
16. “Announce to the nations, look, proclaim against Yerushalayim, that besiegers are coming from a distant land and raise their voice against the cities of Yehuḏah.
17. “Like keepers of a field they are against her all around, because she has rebelled against Me,” declares יהוה.
18. “Your ways and your deeds have brought this upon you. This is your evil, because it is bitter, because it has reached into your heart.”
19. O my inward parts, my inward parts! I am in pain! O the walls of my heart! My heart pounds in me, I am not silent. For you have heard, O my being, the sound of the ram’s horn, a shout of battle!
20. Destruction upon destruction is cried, for all the land is ravaged. Suddenly my tents are ravaged – my curtains in a moment.
21. How long shall I see a banner, and hear the sound of the ram’s horn?
22. “For My people are foolish, they have not known Me. They are stupid children, and they have no understanding. They are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.”
23. I looked at the earth, and saw it was formless and empty. And the heavens, they had no light.
24. I looked at the mountains, and saw they shook, and all the hills were swaying.
