Jeremiah 6:9-17

9ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635 saysH559: “They will 1thoroughlyH5953 gleanH5953 the 2remnantH7611 of IsraelH3478 like the vineH1612; PassH7725 your handH3027 overH5921 the branchesH5552 againH7725 Like a grapeH1219 gathererH1219.”10To whomH4310 shall I speakH1696 and giveH5749 warningH5749, That they may hearH8085? BeholdH2009, their 3earsH241 are 4closedH6189 And they cannotH3201H3808 listenH7181. BeholdH2009, 5the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 has becomeH1961 for them a rebukeH2781; They takeH2654 noH3808 delightH2654 in it.11But I am 6fullH4390 of the wrathH2534 of the LordH3068; I amH3811 7wearyH3811 of holdingH3557 it in. “8PourH8210 it outH8210 on the childrenH5768 in the streetH2351 And on the 9gatheringH5475 of youngH970 menH970 togetherH3164; For bothH1571 husbandH376 and wifeH802 shall be takenH3920, The oldH2205 10and the veryH4392H3117 oldH4392H3117.12Their 11housesH1004 shall be turnedH5437 overH5437 to othersH312, Their fieldsH7704 and their wivesH802 togetherH3164; For I will 12stretchH5186 outH5186 My handH3027 AgainstH5921 the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.13“For 13from the leastH6996 of them to the greatestH1419 of them, EveryoneH3605 is 14greedyH1214 for gainH1215, And from the prophetH5030 to the priestH3548 EveryoneH3605 dealsH6213 falselyH8267.14They have 15healedH7495 the brokennessH7667 of My peopleH5971 superficiallyH5921H7043, SayingH559, ‘PeaceH7965, peaceH7965,’ But thereH369 isH369 noH369 peaceH7965.15WereH954 they 16ashamedH954 becauseH3588 of the abominationH8441 they had doneH6213? They wereH954 not ashamedH954 atH1571 allH954H1571, NorH1571 did they knowH3045 evenH1571 how to be ashamedH3637. ThereforeH3651 they will fallH5307 among those who fallH5307; At the timeH6256 that I punishH6485 them, They will collapseH3782,” saysH559 the LordH3068.

16ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: “StandH5975 by the waysH1870 and seeH7200 and askH7592 for the 17ancientH5769 pathsH5410, WhereH335 the goodH2896 wayH1870 is, and walkH1980 in it; Then 18you will findH4672 a restingH4771 placeH4771 for your soulsH5315. But they saidH559, ‘We will not walkH1980 in it.’17And I setH6965 19watchmenH6822 overH5921 you, saying, ‘ListenH7181 to the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782!’ But they saidH559, ‘We will not listenH7181.’
