24:006:004 Prepare ye war against her; arise, and let us go up at noon. 
           Woe unto us! for the day goeth away, for the shadows of the
           evening are stretched out.

24:006:005 Arise, and let us go by night, and let us destroy her palaces.

24:006:006 For thus hath the lord of hosts said, Hew ye down trees, and
           cast a mount against Jerusalem:  this is the city to be
           visited; she is wholly oppression in the midst of her.

24:006:007 As a fountain casteth out her waters, so she casteth out her
           wickedness:  violence and spoil is heard in her; before me
           continually is grief and wounds.

24:006:008 Be thou instructed, O Jerusalem, lest my soul depart from
           thee; lest I make thee desolate, a land not inhabited.

24:006:009 Thus saith the lord of hosts, They shall throughly glean the
           remnant of Israel as a vine:  turn back thine hand as a
           grapegatherer into the baskets.

24:006:010 To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear?
           behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: 
           behold, the word of the lord is unto them a reproach; they
           have no delight in it.

24:006:011 Therefore I am full of the fury of the lord; I am weary with
           holding in:  I will pour it out upon the children abroad, and
           upon the assembly of young men together:  for even the husband
           with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him that is full
           of days.

24:006:012 And their houses shall be turned unto others, with their
           fields and wives together:  for I will stretch out my hand upon
           the inhabitants of the land, saith the lord.

24:006:013 For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them
           every one is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even
           unto the priest every one dealeth falsely.

24:006:014 They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people
           slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.

24:006:015 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay,
           they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: 
           therefore they shall fall among them that fall:  at the time
           that I visit them they shall be cast down, saith the lord.

24:006:016 Thus saith the lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask
           for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein,
           and ye shall find rest for your souls.  But they said, We will
           not walk therein.

24:006:017 Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of
           the trumpet.  But they said, We will not hearken.
