Jeremiah 8:15-17

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁵We looked for peace, but no good came,
for a time of healing, but behold, terror.

¹⁶“The snorting of their horses is heard from Dan;
    at the sound of the neighing of their stallions
    the whole land quakes.
They come and devour the land and all that fills it,
    the city and those who dwell in it.
¹⁷For behold, I am sending among you serpents,
    adders which cannot be charmed,
    and they shall bite you,”
                says the Lord.
