Jeremiah 18:16-18
Holman Christian Standard Bible
16 They have made their land a horror,(A)
a perpetual object of scorn;[a](B)
everyone who passes by it will be horrified(C)
and shake his head.(D)
17 I will scatter them before the enemy like the east wind.(E)
I will show them[b] My back and not My face
on the day of their calamity.
