Jeremiah 25:32-38

YAHWEH, Commander of Angel Armies, decrees: “Behold, disaster is spreading from nation to nation. My anger, like a perfect storm, is rising from the far ends of the earth.” Those whom YAHWEH slaughters that day will be from all over the earth, and no one will mourn for them. No one will gather their bodies or bury them; they will lie as dung on the ground. Howl, you shepherds, wail in sorrow, and roll on the ground, you leaders of the flock, for your day has come to be slaughtered like sheep. You will fall and be scattered, like pieces of broken pottery. Shepherds, you have nowhere to hide, nowhere to run, you leaders of the flock. Listen as the shepherds cry out in distress! Listen as the leaders of the flock wail in sorrow! For YAHWEH has laid their pasture waste, and their peaceful meadows are reduced to silence because of YAHWEH’s furious anger. The lion has left his lair, and their land is left a wasteland because of the sword of the oppressor and because of his fierce anger.
