4 ¹³ Behold, he comes up like clouds,
his chariots like the whirlwind;
his horses are swifter than eagles -
woe to us, for we are ruined!
4 ¹⁴ O Jerusalem, wash your heart from wickedness,
that you may be saved.
How long shall your evil thoughts
lodge within you?
4 ¹⁵ For a voice declares from Dan
and proclaims evil from Mount Ephraim.
4 ¹⁶ Warn the nations that he is coming;
announce to Jerusalem,
"Besiegers come from a distant land;
they shout against the cities of Judah.
4 ¹⁷ Like keepers of a field are they against her round about,
because she has rebelled against me,
says Yahweh.
4 ¹⁸ Your ways and your doings
have brought this upon you.
This is your doom, and it is bitter;
it has reached your very heart."
