Jeremiah 8:16 in context

  1. 14“Why do we sit still?
    Assemble yourselves!
    Let’s enter into the fortified cities,
    and let’s be silent there;
    for Yahweh our God has put us to silence,
    and given us poisoned water to drink,
    because we have sinned against Yahweh.
  2. 15We looked for peace, but no good came;
    and for a time of healing, and behold, dismay!
  3. 16The snorting of his horses is heard from Dan.
    The whole land trembles at the sound of the neighing of his strong ones;
    for they have come, and have devoured the land and all that is in it,
    the city and those who dwell therein.”
  4. 17“For, behold, I will send serpents,
    adders among you,
    which will not be charmed;
    and they will bite you,” says Yahweh.
  5. 18Oh that I could comfort myself against sorrow!
    My heart is faint within me.
