"My bowels,ª my bowels!ª I am painedª²°°° at my veryª heart;ª my heartª maketh a noiseª° in me; I cannot¹ hold my peace,ª° because¹ thou hast heard,ª° O my soul,ª the soundª of the trumpet,ª the alarmª of war.ª ... How long¹¹ shall I seeª° the standard,ª [and] hearª° the soundª of the trumpet?ª" {Jer 4:19-21} + "A soundª of a cryª [cometh] from Babylon,ª¹ and greatª destructionª from the landª¹ of the Chaldeans:ª ... Because¹ the spoilerª° is comeª° upon¹ her, [even] upon¹ Babylon,ª and her mighty menª are taken,ª° every one of their bowsª is broken:ª° for¹ the LORDª Godª of recompencesª shall surely²° requite.ª°" {Jer 51:54-56} + "A grievousª visionª is declaredª° unto me; the treacherous dealerª° dealeth treacherously,ª° and the spoilerª° spoileth.ª° Go up,ª° O Elam:ª besiege,ª° O Media;ª all¹ the sighingª thereof have I made to cease.ª° ... My heartª panted,ª° fearfulnessª affrightedª°¹ me: the nightª of my pleasureª hath he turnedª° into fearª unto me." {Isa 21:2-4} |
