Jeremiah 5:2-4
New Catholic Bible
2 Even though they say, “As the Lord lives,”
they are in fact swearing falsely.
3 Do your eyes not search for truth, O Lord?
When you struck them, they felt no anguish;
when you brought them down, they refused correction.
They have made their faces harder than stone
and refused to repent.
4 Then I thought, “These are only the poor;
they tend to act foolishly.
For they do not know the way of the Lord
or the ordinances of their God.
