Freeborn,

I was reading Jeremiah on the way to work and stopped at Chapter 5. But I ran across this verse:

 

Jeremiah 5:13-17 (KJV)
^5:13 And the prophets shall become wind, and the word is not in them: thus shall it be done unto them.
¹⁴ Wherefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts, Because ye speak this word, behold, I will make my words in thy mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.
¹⁵ Lo, I will bring a nation upon you from far, O house of Israel, saith the LORD: it is a mighty nation, it is an ancient nation, a nation whose language thou knowest not, neither understandest what they say.
¹⁶ Their quiver is as an open sepulchre, they are all mighty men.
¹⁷ And they shall eat up thine harvest, and thy bread, which thy sons and thy daughters should eat: they shall eat up thy flocks and thine herds: they shall eat up thy vines and thy fig trees: they shall impoverish thy fenced cities, wherein thou trustedst, with the sword.

 

What nation would GOD be speaking about here?
