Jeremiah 5:1-6:30; Jeremiah 13:1-27

Jeremiah the Prophet proclaims God's judgment against the sins of his nation and its people.  He announces that advancing armies are, in fact, bringing about God's punishment for their sins. Defeat, destruction, and deportation await them, yet they will not be exterminated completely. God will preserve some fraction of the people.

The sins of my nation and my people are many. Many are my sins, too. May we repent, and may we persevere through sins' consequences.
