Jeremiah 5:1-9

1Run ye to and fro through the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389, and seeH7200 now, and knowH3045, and seekH1245 in the broadways thereof, if ye can findH4672 a manH376, if there be [any] that doeth justiceH4941, that seeketh fidelity; and I will pardon it.

2And if they sayH559, [As] Jehovah liveth! surely they swearH7650 falsely.

3Jehovah, are not thine eyesH5869 upon fidelity? Thou hast smitten them, but they are not sore; thou hast consumed them, they have refusedH3985 to receiveH3947 correctionH4148: they have madeH2388 their facesH6440 harder than a rockH5553; they have refusedH3985 to returnH7725.

4And I saidH559, Surely these are the wretched ones, they are foolish; for they knowH3045 not the wayH1870 of Jehovah, the judgmentH4941 of their 1GodH430.

5I will go unto the greatH1419 men, and will speakH1696 unto them; for they knowH3045 the wayH1870 of Jehovah, the judgmentH4941 of their 2GodH430; but these have altogetherH3162 brokenH7665 the yokeH5923, have burst the bonds.

6ThereforeH3651 a lionH738 out of the forestH3293 shall slay them, a wolfH2061 of the evenings shall waste them; the leopardH5246 lurketh against their citiesH5892, every one that goeth out thence is tornH2963 in pieces: for their transgressionsH6588 are multiplied, their backslidings are increased.

7Wherefore should I pardon thee? Thy children have forsaken me, and swearH7650 by them that are not 3GodH430. I have satiated them, and they have committedH5003 adulteryH5003, and they troop to the harlots' houseH1004.

8[As] well fed horsesH5483, they roam about, every oneH376 neigheth after his neighbour's wifeH802.

9Shall I not visitH6485 for these thingsH428? saith Jehovah, and shall not my soulH5315 be avengedH5358 on such a nationH1471 as this?
