← Jeremiah 4:27 Jeremiah 4:29 → READ IN CONTEXT · BSB
Jeremiah 4 26 I looked, and the fruitful land was a desert. All its cities were torn down before the LORD, before His fierce anger.
27 For this is what the LORD says: “The whole land will be desolate, but I will not finish its destruction.
28 Therefore the earth will mourn and the heavens above will grow dark. I have spoken, I have planned, and I will not relent or turn back.”
29 Every city flees at the sound of the horseman and archer. They enter the thickets and climb among the rocks. Every city is abandoned; no inhabitant is left.
30 And you, O devastated one, what will you do, though you dress yourself in scarlet, though you adorn yourself with gold jewelry, though you enlarge your eyes with paint? You adorn yourself in vain; your lovers despise you; they want to take your life.
