Jeremiah 6:6 - The Message

God-of-the-Angel-Armies gave the orders:   "Chop down her trees.
   Build a siege ramp against Jerusalem,
A city full of brutality,
   bursting with violence.
Just as a well holds a good supply of water,
   she supplies wickedness nonstop.
The streets echo the cries: ’Violence! Rape!’
   Victims, bleeding and moaning, lie all over the place.
You’re in deep trouble, Jerusalem.
   You’ve pushed me to the limit.
You’re on the brink of being wiped out,
   being turned into a ghost town."
