Jeremiah 8:4-7

4“You shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord, “Do men 1fall and not get up again? Does one turn away and not 2repent?5Why then has this people, Jerusalem, 3Turned away in continual apostasy? They 4hold fast to deceit, They 5refuse to return.6I 6have listened and heard, They have spoken what is not right; 7No man repented of his wickedness, Saying, ‘What have I done?’ Everyone turned to his course, Like a 8horse charging into the battle.7Even the stork in the sky 9Knows her seasons; And the 10turtledove and the swift and the thrush Observe the time of their 11migration; But 12My people do not know The ordinance of the Lord.
