Jeremiah 6:27 in Context — Jeremiah 6
25 No salgas al campo, ni andes por camino; porque espada de enemigo [y] temor [hay] por todas partes.
26 Hija de mi pueblo, cíñete de saco, y revuélcate en ceniza; hazte luto como por hijo único, llanto de amarguras: porque presto vendrá sobre nosotros el destruidor.
27 Por fortaleza te he puesto en mi pueblo, por torre: conocerás pues, y examinarás el camino de ellos.
28 Todos ellos príncipes rebeldes, andan con engaño; son cobre y hierro: todos ellos son corruptores.
29 Quemóse el fuelle, del fuego se ha consumido el plomo: por demás fundió el fundidor, pues los malos no son arrancados.
