Jeremiah 5:1-2
New Catholic Bible
Chapter 5[a]
Evil Everywhere
1 Roam through the streets of Jerusalem,
look around and take careful note;
search through the public squares.
If you can find even one person
who acts justly and seeks the truth,
I will pardon this city.
2 Even though they say, “As the Lord lives,”
they are in fact swearing falsely.
Footnotes
- Jeremiah 5:1 No one is as sensitive as Jeremiah to the sin that is spreading like a canker. God has been hunted from the life of his people, without hope of a return.
