Jeremiah 6:1 - The Message

"Run for your lives, children of Benjamin! Get out of Jerusalem, and now!
Give a blast on the ram’s horn in Blastville.
   Send up smoke signals from Smoketown.
Doom pours out of the north—
   massive terror!
I have likened my dear daughter Zion
   to a lovely meadow.
Well, now ’shepherds’ from the north have discovered her
   and brought in their flocks of soldiers.
They’ve pitched camp all around her,
   and plan where they’ll ’graze.’
And then, ’Prepare to attack! The fight is on!
   To arms! We’ll strike at noon!
Oh, it’s too late? Day is dying?
   Evening shadows are upon us?
Well, up anyway! We’ll attack by night
   and tear apart her defenses stone by stone.’"
