Jeremiah23:12
12 Wherefore their way shall be unto them, as slippery wayes in the darkness: they shall be driven on and fall therein : for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, saith the LORD .
As their ordinary course is wicked and sinful, so they shall find that it will in the event be to them pernicious, perillous and full of danger, as a slippery path is to them that walk in a dark night, they shall be driven on till they fall therein. Courses of Sin may look smooth, but they alwayes prove slippery.
For I am resolved to punish their wicked courses; and to visit them with my judgments.
