Jeremiah 6:4 Prepare ye war against her: arise, and let us go up at mid-day: woe unto us, for the day is declined, for the shadows of the evening are grown longer.

Prepare. Literally, "sanctify." Observe the usual formalities of demanding reparation, offering victims, etc. The Chaldeans thus encourage one another, and will allow themselves no rest day or night, ver. 5.
