Jeremiah 6:22
Berean Standard Bible
This is what the LORD says: “Behold, an army is coming from the land of the north; a great nation is stirred up from the ends of the earth.
Context
20What use to Me is frankincense from Sheba
or sweet cane from a distant land?
Your burnt offerings are not acceptable;
your sacrifices do not please Me.” 21Therefore this is what the LORD says:
“I will lay stumbling blocks before this people;
fathers and sons alike will be staggered;
friends and neighbors will perish.” 22This is what the LORD says:
“Behold, an army is coming
from the land of the north;
a great nation is stirred up
from the ends of the earth. 23They grasp the bow and spear;*
they are cruel and merciless.
Their voice roars like the sea,
and they ride upon horses,
lined up like men in formation
against you, O Daughter of Zion.” 24We have heard the report;
our hands hang limp.
Anguish has gripped us,
pain like that of a woman in labor.
