Blow a trumpet in Tekoa. 2The daughter of Zion, the beautiful and delicate woman, will be destroyed. 3The shepherds and their flocks will go to them; 4“Dedicate yourselves to the gods for the battle. Arise, let us attack at noon. 5But let us attack at night and destroy her fortresses.” 6For Yahweh of hosts says this: Cut her trees, and heap up siegeworks against Jerusalem. 7As a well pours out fresh water, so this city keeps producing wickedness. 8Accept discipline, Jerusalem, or I will turn away from you 9Yahweh of hosts says this, “They will certainly glean those who are left in Israel like a vineyard. 10To whom should I declare and warn so they will listen? 11But I am filled with Yahweh's fury.

They are cruel and have no compassion. 24We have heard the reports about them and our hands fall limp in distress. 25Do not go out to the fields, and do not walk on the roads, 26Daughter of my people, put on sackcloth and roll in ashes; 27“I have made you, Jeremiah, one who tests my people like one would test metal, so you will inspect and test their ways. 28They are all the most stubborn of people, who go about slandering others. 29The bellows are scorched by the fire that is burning them; the lead is consumed in the flames.
