Jeremiah 6:6-8
Common English Bible
6 The Lord of heavenly forces proclaims:
Cut down her trees,
and build siege ramps against Jerusalem.
This city must be held accountable,[a]
for there’s nothing but oppression in her midst.
7 As a well brings forth fresh water,
she brings forth evil.
Violence and destruction are heard within her;
injury and wounds are ever before me.
8 Hear me out,[b] Jerusalem,
or else I’ll turn away from you
and reduce you to ruins,
a land unfit to live in.
