The verse 8 is found in chapter 6 of Jeremiah. Jerusalem is compared to a fountain from which violence and corruption flow. The enemy prepares to attack and the city appears as an object of judgment. The invitation to correct itself introduces one final possibility of repentance before calamity reaches its fullness.
