Jeremiah 6:1
O ye children of Benjamin, gather yourselves to flee out of the midst of Jerusalem, and blow the trumpet in Tekoa, and set up a sign of fire in Bethhaccerem: for evil appeareth out of the north, and great destruction.
KJV
Confortamini, filii Benjamin, in medio Jerusalem : et in Thecua clangite buccina, et super Bethacarem levate vexillum, quia malum visum est ab aquilone, et contritio magna.
Vulgate
Ἐνισχύσατε, υἱοὶ Βενιαμείν, ἐκ μέσου τῆς Ἰερουσαλήμ, καὶ ἐν Θεκοῦε σημάνατε σάλπιγγι, καὶ ὑπὲρ Βαιθθαχαρμὰ ἄρατε σημεῖον· ὅτι κακὰ ἐκκέκυφεν ἀπὸ βορρᾶ, καὶ συντριβὴ μεγάλη γίνεται,
LXX
Flee for safety, ye children of Benjamin, out of the midst of Jerusalem, and blow the trumpet in Tekoa, and raise up a signal on Beth-haccherem; for evil looketh forth from the north, and a great destruction.
