Jeremiah 6, verse 22-23
Source: Bible New International Version
22 This is what the Lord says:
“Look, an army is coming from the land of the north; a great nation is being stirred up from the ends of the earth. 23 They are armed with bow and spear; they are cruel and show no mercy. They sound like the roaring sea as they ride on their horses; they come like men in battle formation to attack you, Daughter Zion.”
22 خداوند جو کہتا ہے:
“شمال کے ملک سے ایک فوج آرہی ہے،
زمین کے دور مقاموں سے ایک طاقتور قوم آرہی ہے۔
23 وہ تیر اندازی اور نیزہ با زی میں ماہر ہیں۔
وہ ظالم اور بے رحم ہیں،
ان کے چلانے کی صدا سمندر کی شور سی ہے۔
اور وہ گھوڑو ں پر سوار ہیں۔
اے دخترِ صیون!
وہ فو جوں کی مانند تیرے مقابل صف آرائی کرتے ہیں۔ ”
My point of view about above verses
God told people of Benjamin flee for safety as disaster is coming from north to destroy Zion – Shepherds along their flocks pitch their tents to get their portion
God told others are preparing to battle against her(Jerusalem) – and destroy her fortresses
God told cut down the trees and build siege against Jerusalem – the city must be punished as it is filled with cruelty
God says as well pours out its water so Jerusalem pours out her wickedness – violence and destruction surrounds her
God said take warning Jerusalem I will make your land desolate so no one can live in it
Let them gather the remnant of Israel as grapes are gathered from vine
Jeremiah says no body cares about God's wrath which is about to come on young and old both
God told tell my words to children in street and on young man gathered, husband and wife and old people their houses will be turned over to other together with their fields and wives – when I stretch out my hand against those who live in landGod said they all are greedy for gain even prophets and priest alike – all practice deceit
They say to my wounded people there is peace although there is no peace
God said they are not ashamed of their detestable conduct – so they will fell – I will punish them
Stand at the crossroads and look for ancient paths – ask where the good way is and walk in it – and you will find rest for your souls
God says they said we will not walk in it – God says listen the sound of trumpet but you said we will not listen – so u who all listening – listen I am bringing disaster on them - as thet did not abide by my law
I don’t care for your offering of incense which you brings from distant land to please me
So God said I will put obstacles before this people – parents and children alike will stagger & neighbors and friends will perish
God said an army is coming from north – they are merciless people – they ride on their horses – they are coming to attack Zion
May God give us wisdom to understand Him through His Word as He speaks with us through this word and prophets - and apply it in our lives to have a blissful life on earth
