Jeremiah 6:13-15

The Voice

¹³     Greed has corrupted this culture, from the least to the greatest:
        all are tainted with this lust for what they don’t deserve.
    The prophets and priests are no better.
        Their lives reek with deceit.
¹⁴     To heal the brokenness of My people,
        they offer superficial words.
    They say, “Peace, peace,” as if all is well.
        But there is no peace.
¹⁵     Do they feel any shame for their disgraceful deeds?
        Absolutely not. My very own have forgotten how to blush.
    And so it is that they will fall among the fallen and be defeated;
        when the time comes, they will stumble beneath the weight of My punishment;
    They will know soon enough what they have done.
