Jeremiah 8:14-16

New International Version

¹⁴ Why are we sitting here?
    Gather together!
Let us flee to the fortified cities^(A)
    and perish there!
For the Lord our God has doomed us to perish
    and given us poisoned water^(B) to drink,
    because we have sinned^(C) against him.
¹⁵ We hoped for peace^(D)
    but no good has come,
for a time of healing
    but there is only terror.^(E)
16 The snorting of the enemy’s horses^(F)
    is heard from Dan;^(G)
at the neighing of their stallions
    the whole land trembles.^(H)
They have come to devour^(I)
    the land and everything in it,
    the city and all who live there.
