Revised Version 1895
Jeremiah 8:5-9
5WhyH4069 then is this peopleH5971 of JerusalemH3389 slidden backH7725 by a perpetual backsliding? they holdH2388 fastH2388 deceit, they refuseH3985 to returnH7725.
6I hearkened and heardH8085, but they spake notH3808 aright: noH3808 manH376 repenteth him of his wickednessH7451, sayingH559, WhatH4100 have I doneH6213? everyH3605 one turneth to his courseH4794, as a horseH5483 that rusheth headlong in the battleH4421.
7Yea, the storkH2624 in the heavenH8064 knoweth herH935 appointedH4150 timesH6256; and the turtle and the swallowH5693 and the craneH5693 observeH8104 the time of their comingH935; but my peopleH5971 knowH3045 notH3808 the ordinanceH4941 of the LORDH3068.
8HowH349 doH6213 ye sayH559, WeH587 are wiseH2450, and the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068 is with usH559? But, beholdH2009, the falseH8267 penH5842 of the scribesH5608 hath wrought falselyH8267.
9The wiseH2450 menH2450 are ashamedH954, they are dismayedH2865 and takenH3920: loH2009, they have rejectedH3988 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068; and whatH4100 mannerH1697 of wisdomH2451 is in them?
