Jeremiah 4:8 Context
6Set vp the standards toward Zion: retyre, stay not; for I will bring euil from the North, and a great destruction. 7The Lion is come vp from his thicket, and the destroyer of the Gentiles is on his way; hee is gone foorth from his place to make thy land desolate, and thy cities shall be layed waste, without an inhabitant. 8For this gird you with sackcloth; lament and howle: for the fierce anger of the Lord is not turned backe from vs. 9And it shall come to passe at that day, saith the Lord, that the heart of the King shall perish, and the heart of the Princes: and the Priests shalbe astonished, & the prophets shall wonder. 10Then said I, Ah Lord God, surely thou hast greatly deceiued this people, and Ierusalem, saying, Ye shall haue peace, whereas the sword reacheth vnto the soule.
