耶和華曰、我聞戰慄驚恐之聲、非平康之聲、

惟聞戰慄恐懼之聲、不聞歡樂之聲。

主如是云、惟聞戰慄之聲、各處驚惶、毫無平康、

“ This is what the Lord says:“‘ Cries of fear are heard— terror, not peace.

“ I am the Lord. I say,“‘ Cries of fear are heard. There is terror. There isn’t any peace.

“ Thus says the Lord: We have heard a cry of panic, of terror, and no peace.

This is what the LORD says: We have heard a cry of terror, of dread— there is no peace.

“ For this is what the Lord says:‘ I have heard a sound of terror, Of fear, and there is no peace.

“ For thus says the Lord:‘ We have heard a voice of trembling, Of fear, and not of peace.

For thus saith Jehovah: We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.

Yes, this is what the Lord says: We have heard a cry of terror, of dread— there is no peace.

For thus saith the LORD; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.

Yes, here is what he says:“ You hear cries of panic and of terror; there is no peace in sight.

For Yahweh says:“ We have heard a voice of trembling; a voice of fear, and not of peace.

Therefore, this is what the Lord, the Lord God of Heaven’s Armies, says:“ There will be crying in all the public squares and mourning in every street. Call for the farmers to weep with you, and summon professional mourners to wail.There will be wailing in every vineyard, for I will destroy them all,” says the Lord.What sorrow awaits you who say,“ If only the day of the Lord were here!” You have no idea what you are wishing for. That day will bring darkness, not light.

They will roar over their victims on that day of destruction like the roaring of the sea. If someone looks across the land, only darkness and distress will be seen; even the light will be darkened by clouds.

But what do I see? The Egyptian army flees in terror. The bravest of its fighting men run without a backward glance. They are terrorized at every turn,” says the Lord.

Your destruction has been announced from Dan and the hill country of Ephraim.“ Warn the surrounding nations and announce this to Jerusalem: The enemy is coming from a distant land, raising a battle cry against the towns of Judah.They surround Jerusalem like watchmen around a field, for my people have rebelled against me,” says the Lord.“ Your own actions have brought this upon you. This punishment is bitter, piercing you to the heart!”My heart, my heart— I writhe in pain! My heart pounds within me! I cannot be still. For I have heard the blast of enemy trumpets and the roar of their battle cries.Waves of destruction roll over the land, until it lies in complete desolation. Suddenly my tents are destroyed; in a moment my shelters are crushed.

“ On that day,” says the Lord,“ a cry of alarm will come from the Fish Gate and echo throughout the New Quarter of the city. And a great crash will sound from the hills.Wail in sorrow, all you who live in the market area, for all the merchants and traders will be destroyed.

Hear the people of Jerusalem crying in despair,‘ We are ruined! We are completely humiliated! We must leave our land, because our homes have been torn down.’”

For the days are coming when they will say,‘ Fortunate indeed are the women who are childless, the wombs that have not borne a child and the breasts that have never nursed.’People will beg the mountains,‘ Fall on us,’ and plead with the hills,‘ Bury us.’

Listen to the weeping of my people; it can be heard all across the land.“ Has the Lord abandoned Jerusalem?” the people ask.“ Is her King no longer there?”“ Oh, why have they provoked my anger with their carved idols and their worthless foreign gods?” says the Lord.

We growl like hungry bears; we moan like mournful doves. We look for justice, but it never comes. We look for rescue, but it is far away from us.

Listen to the frantic cries of the shepherds. The leaders of the flock are wailing in despair, for the Lord is ruining their pastures.

But as he came closer to Jerusalem and saw the city ahead, he began to weep.“ How I wish today that you of all people would understand the way to peace. But now it is too late, and peace is hidden from your eyes.Before long your enemies will build ramparts against your walls and encircle you and close in on you from every side.They will crush you into the ground, and your children with you. Your enemies will not leave a single stone in place, because you did not recognize it when God visited you.”

“ And there will be strange signs in the sun, moon, and stars. And here on earth the nations will be in turmoil, perplexed by the roaring seas and strange tides.People will be terrified at what they see coming upon the earth, for the powers in the heavens will be shaken.

This is what the Lord says:“ A cry is heard in Ramah— deep anguish and bitter weeping. Rachel weeps for her children, refusing to be comforted— for her children are gone.”But now this is what the Lord says:“ Do not weep any longer, for I will reward you,” says the Lord.“ Your children will come back to you from the distant land of the enemy.

They are armed with bows and spears. They are cruel and show no mercy. They sound like a roaring sea as they ride forward on horses. They are coming in battle formation, planning to destroy you, beautiful Jerusalem.”We have heard reports about the enemy, and we wring our hands in fright. Pangs of anguish have gripped us, like those of a woman in labor.Don’t go out to the fields! Don’t travel on the roads! The enemy’s sword is everywhere and terrorizes us at every turn!

I will turn your celebrations into times of mourning and your singing into weeping. You will wear funeral clothes and shave your heads to show your sorrow— as if your only son had died. How very bitter that day will be!
