Jeremiah 10:17 Context
15They are vanity, and the worke of errours: in the time of their visitation they shall perish. 16The portion of Iacob is not like them: for he is the fourmer of all things, and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: the Lord of hostes is his Name. 17¶ Gather vp thy wares out of the land, O inhabitant of the fortresse. 18For thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this once, and will distresse them, that they may find it so. 19¶ Woe is mee for my hurt, my wound is grieuous: but I sayd, Truely this is a griefe, and I must beare it.
