Jeremiah 5:4-6
Lexham English Bible
4 Then I said, “They are just simple people,
they are foolish,
for they know not the way of Yahweh,
the law[a] of their God.
5 Let me go to the great,
and let me speak with them,
for they know the way of Yahweh,
the law[b] of their God.”
However, they together have broken the yoke,
they have torn to pieces the bonds.
6 Therefore a lion from the forest will kill them,
A wolf from the desert plains[c] will devastate them.
A leopard is watching their cities,
everyone who goes out from there will be torn,
because their transgressions are many,
their apostasies are numerous.
