Jeremiah 5:19-25

19And it shall come about 1when 2they say, ‘Why has the Lord our God done all these things to us?’ then you shall say to them, ‘Just as you have abandoned Me and served foreign gods in your land, so you will 3serve strangers in a land that is not yours.’

20“Declare this in the house of Jacob And proclaim it in Judah, saying,21‘Now hear this, you foolish and 4senseless people, Who have 5eyes but do not see, Who have ears but do not hear.22Do you not 6fear Me?’ declares the Lord. ‘Do you not tremble in My presence? For I have 7placed the sand as a boundary for the sea, An eternal limit, and it will not cross over it. Though the waves toss, they cannot prevail; Though they roar, they will not cross over it.23But this people has a 8stubborn and rebellious heart; They have turned aside and departed.24They do not say in their heart, “Let us now fear the Lord our God, Who 9gives rain in its season, Both 10the autumn rain and the spring rain, Who keeps for us The 11appointed weeks of the harvest.”25Your 12wrongdoings have turned these away, And your sins have kept good away from you.
