Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and take away the foreskins of your heart, you men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem; lest my wrath go out like fire, and burn so that no one can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.
Declare in Judah, and publish in Jerusalem; and say, ‘Blow the trumpet in the land!’ Cry aloud and say, ‘Assemble yourselves!
Let’s go into the fortified cities!’ Set up a standard toward Zion.
Flee for safety!
Don’t wait; for I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction.”
