Jeremiah 4:11–12

At that time it will be said to this people and to Jerusalem, “A hot wind from the bare heights in the desert toward the daughter of my people, not to winnow or cleanse, a wind too full for this comes for me. Now it is I who speak in judgment upon them.”

At that time this people and Jerusalem will be told, “A scorching wind from the barren heights in the desert blows toward my people, but not to winnow or cleanse; a wind too strong for that comes from me. Now I pronounce my judgments against them.”

“At that time it will be said to this people and to Jerusalem, ‘A searing wind blows from the barren heights in the wilderness on the way to my dear people. It comes not to winnow or to sift; a wind too strong for this comes at my call. Now I will also pronounce judgments against them.’ ”

The time is coming when the Lord will say

to the people of Jerusalem,

“My dear people, a burning wind is blowing in from the desert,

and it’s not a gentle breeze useful for winnowing grain.

It is a roaring blast sent by me!

Now I will pronounce your destruction!”

At that time it will be said to this people and to Jerusalem,

“A hot wind from the barren heights in the desert,

in the direction of the daughter of my people,

not to winnow and not to cleanse,

a wind too strong for these will come for me,

now also I speak judgments against them.”

At that time shall it be said to this people and to Jerusalem,

A dry wind of the high places in the wilderness toward the daughter of my people,

Not to fan, nor to cleanse,

Even a full wind from those places shall come unto me:

Now also will I give sentence against them.
