Jeremiah

Warnings about Jerusalem's destruction due to unfaithfulness, with promises of a new covenant.

Chapter 8

KJV - Jeremiah 8:14

Why do we sit still? assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the defenced cities, and let us be silent there: for the LORD our God hath put us to silence, and given us water of gall to drink, because we have sinned against the LORD.

Why do we stay put? Come together, and let's go to the safe cities. Be quiet there. The LORD our God made us quiet and gave us bitter water to drink because we did something wrong.
