Jeremiah 8:6-10

6I hearkened and heardH8085: they speakH1696 not what is rightH3651; there is no manH376 who repenteth him of his wickednessH7451, sayingH559, What have I done? Every oneH376 turneth to his courseH4794, like a horseH5483 rushing into the battleH4421.

7Even a storkH2624 in the heavensH8064 knoweth her appointedH4150 timesH6256, and the turtle-dove and the swallow and the craneH5693 observeH8104 the timeH6256 of their comingH935; but my peopleH5971 knowH3045 not the judgmentH4941 of Jehovah.

8HowH349 do ye sayH559, We are wiseH2450, and the lawH8451 of Jehovah is with us? Behold, certainly the lyingH8267 pen of the scribesH5608 hath madeH6213 it falsehoodH8267.

9The wiseH2450 men are ashamedH954, they are dismayedH2865 and takenH3920: behold, they have rejectedH3988 Jehovah's wordH1697; and what wisdomH2451 is in them?

10ThereforeH3651 will I giveH5414 their wivesH802 unto othersH312, their fieldsH7704 to those that shall possessH3423 [them]; for every one, from the least even unto the greatestH1419, is givenH5414 to covetousness; from the prophetH5030 even unto the priestH3548, every one dealeth falsely.
