Jeremiah 5:19-25

19And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say, Why doeth the LORD our God all these things to us? then shalt thou answer them, As ye have forsaken me, and served foreign gods in your land, so shall ye serve strangers in a land that is not yours.

20Declare this in the house of Jacob, and proclaim it in Judah, saying, 21Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; who have eyes, and see not; who have ears, and hear not:1 22Fear ye not me? saith the LORD: will ye not tremble at my presence, who have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though its waves toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it? 23But this people have a revolting and a rebellious heart; they have revolted and gone. 24Neither say they in their heart, Let us now fear the LORD our God, that giveth rain, both the former and the latter, in its season: he reserveth to us the appointed weeks of harvest.

25Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withheld good things from you.
