Jeremiah 4:28

An Invasion From The North

²⁷
Therefore says the Lord,
“The whole land shall be a desolation,
Yet I will not cause total destruction.
²⁸ 
“For this reason the earth shall mourn
And the heavens above shall become dark,
Because I have spoken, I have decided,
And I will not change my mind (relent), nor will I turn back from it.”
²⁹
Every city runs away at the sound of the horsemen and archers.
They go into the thickets and climb among the rocks;
Every city is deserted,
And no man lives in them.

All the Earth

For This Cause

My People
