Bible Quote for January 1

Complete Destruction

And now the LORD Almighty says: Because you have not listened to me, I will gather together all the armies of the north under King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, whom I have appointed as my deputy.  I will bring them all against this land and its people and against the other nations near you.  I will completely destroy you and make you an object of horror and contempt and a ruin forever.  I will take away your happy singing and laughter.  The joyful voices of bridegrooms and brides will no longer be heard.  Your businesses will fail, and all your homes will stand silent and dark.  This entire land will become a desolate wasteland.  (Jeremiah 25:8-11 NLT)
