Jeremiah 9:16

Judah's Failures

¹⁵ Therefore, this is what the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: “I am about to feed this people wormwood and give them poisonous water to drink. ¹⁶ I will scatter them among the nations that they and their fathers have not known. I will send a sword after them until I have finished them off.” ¹⁷ This is what the Lord of Hosts says:

Consider, and summon the women who mourn;
send for the skillful women.
