Jeremiah 4:13

Disaster from the North

12a wind too strong for that comes from Me. Now I also pronounce judgments against them.” 13Behold, he advances like the clouds, his chariots like the whirlwind. His horses are swifter than eagles. Woe to us, for we are ruined! 14Wash the evil from your heart, O Jerusalem, so that you may be saved. How long will you harbor wicked thoughts within you?
