Jeremiah 8:11–15

11 For they have phealed the hurt of the daughter of My people 2slightly,

Saying, q‘Peace, peace!’

When there is no peace.

12 Were they rashamed when they had committed abomination?

No! They were not at all ashamed,

Nor did they know how to blush.

Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;

In the time of their punishment

They shall be cast down,” says the Lord.

13 “I will surely 3consume them,” says the Lord.

“No grapes shall be son the vine,

Nor figs on the tfig tree,

And the leaf shall fade;

And the things I have given them shall upass away from them.” ’ ”

14 “Why do we sit still?

vAssemble yourselves,

And let us enter the fortified cities,

And let us be silent there.

For the Lord our God has put us to silence

And given us wwater 4of gall to drink,

Because we have sinned against the Lord.

15 We xlooked for peace, but no good came;

And for a time of health, and there was trouble!
