Jeremia 8,16

DanDan
Judgment

14 Hvorfor sitter vi stille? Samle dere, la oss flykte til de befestede byene og omkomme der. For Herren vår Gud har bestemt vår ødeleggelse og gitt oss forgiftet vann å drikke, fordi vi har syndet mot Ham.

15 Vi håpet på fred, men ingen god kom; vi håpet på en tid for helbredelse, men se, terror!

Snorkingen av deres hester høres fra Dan; ved lyden av deres hingsters vrinsk skjelver hele landet. De kommer for å fortære landet og alt som fyller det, byen og de som bor der.

17 "For se, jeg sender slanger blant dere, giftige slanger som ikke kan sjarmers, og de skal bite dere," erklærer Herren.

18 Min sorg er uten helbredelse, mitt hjerte er matt i meg.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
