NET Bible
"All this will happen because the LORD said,“The whole land will be desolate; however, I will not completely destroy it."
— Jeremiah 4:27, NET Bible
“For thus hath the Lord said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.”
“For thus saith Jehovah, The whole land shall be a desolation; yet will I not make a full end. ”
“For thus says Yahweh, "The whole land shall be a desolation; yet will I not make a full end.”
“For thus saith the Lord: All the land shall be desolate, but yet I will not utterly destroy.”
“For this is what the Lord has said: All the land will become a waste; I will make destruction complete.”
“For thus hath the Lord said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.”
I looked at the mountains and saw that they were shaking. All the hills were swaying back and forth!
I looked and saw that there were no more people, and that all the birds in the sky had flown away.
I looked and saw that the fruitful land had become a desert and that all of the cities had been laid in ruins. The LORD had brought this all about because of his blazing anger.
All this will happen because the LORD said,“The whole land will be desolate; however, I will not completely destroy it.
Because of this the land will mourn and the sky above will grow black. For I have made my purpose known and I will not relent or turn back from carrying it out.”
At the sound of the approaching horsemen and archers the people of every town will flee. Some of them will hide in the thickets. Others will climb up among the rocks. All the cities will be deserted. No one will remain in them.
And you, Zion, city doomed to destruction, you accomplish nothing by wearing a beautiful dress, decking yourself out in jewels of gold, and putting on eye shadow! You are making yourself beautiful for nothing. Your lovers spurn you. They want to kill you.
