14Why do we sit still? Gather together, let us go into the fortified cities and perish there; for the Lord our God has doomed us to perish, and has given us poisoned water to drink, because we have sinned against the Lord. 15We look for peace, but find no good, for a time of healing, but there is terror instead. 16The snorting of their horses is heard from Dan; at the sound of the neighing of their stallions the whole land quakes. They come and devour the land and all that fills it, the city and those who live in it. 17See, I am letting snakes loose among you, adders that cannot be charmed, and they shall bite you, says the Lord.
