Jeremiah 25:32-38 ▼

32 “This is what the LORD of Armies says: Pay attention! Disaster spreads from nation to nation. A huge storm is stirred up from the ends of the earth.”

33 Those slain by the LORD on that day will be scattered from one end of the earth to the other. They will not be mourned, gathered, or buried. They will be like manure on the soil’s surface.

34 Wail, you shepherds, and cry out. Roll in the dust, you leaders of the flock. Because the days of your slaughter have come, you will fall and become shattered like a precious vase.

35 Flight will be impossible for the shepherds, and escape, for the leaders of the flock.

36 Hear the sound of the shepherds’ cry, the wail of the leaders of the flock, for the LORD is destroying their pasture.

37 Peaceful grazing land will become lifeless because of the LORD’s burning anger.

38 He has left his den like a lion, for their land has become a desolation because of the sword of the oppressor, because of his burning anger.
