Jeremiah 6:7-9

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁷As a well keeps its water fresh,
    so she keeps fresh her wickedness;
violence and destruction are heard within her;
    sickness and wounds are ever before me.
⁸Take warning, O Jerusalem,
    or I shall turn from you in disgust,
and make you a desolation,
    an uninhabited land.

⁹Thus says the Lord of hosts:
Glean^[a] thoroughly as a vine
the remnant of Israel;
like a grape-gatherer, pass your hand again
over its branches.
