Jeremiah 5:2-4

Revised Geneva Translation

² “For though they say, ‘The LORD lives,’ they still swear falsely.”

³ O LORD, are not Your eyes upon the truth? You have stricken them, but they have not anguished. You have consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction. They have made their faces harder than a stone and have refused to return.

⁴ Therefore I said, “Surely they are poor, they are foolish. For they do not know the way of the LORD, the judgment of their God.
