Jeremiah 6:26 WBT

²⁴  We have heard the fame of it: our hands become feeble: anguish hath taken hold of us, [and] pain, as of a woman in travail.

²⁵  Go not forth into the field, nor walk by the way; for the sword of the enemy [and] fear [is] on every side.

²⁶  O daughter of my people, gird [thee] with sackcloth, and wallow thyself in ashes: make thee mourning, [as for] an only son, most bitter lamentation: for the spoiler shall suddenly come upon us.

²⁷  I have set thee [for] a tower [and] a fortress among my people, that thou mayest know and try their way.

²⁸  They [are] all grievous revolters, walking with slanders: [they are] brass and iron; they [are] all corrupters.
