Jeremiah 5:1
English Standard Version
Jerusalem Refused to Repent
5 (A)Run to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem,
look and take note!
Search her squares to see
(B)if you can find a man,
one who does justice
and seeks truth,
(C)that I may pardon her.
Ezekiel 22:29-31
English Standard Version
29 The people of the land (A)have practiced extortion and committed robbery. They have oppressed the poor and needy, and (B)have extorted from the sojourner without justice. 30 (C)And I sought for a man among them (D)who should build up the wall (E)and stand in the breach before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none. 31 Therefore (F)I have poured out my indignation upon them. I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. I have returned (G)their way upon their heads, declares the Lord God.”
