Jeremiah 5:21-23

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²¹ “Hear this, O foolish and senseless people,
    who have eyes, but see not,
    who have ears, but hear not.
²² Do you not fear me? says the Lord;
    Do you not tremble before me?
I placed the sand as the bound for the sea,
    a perpetual barrier which it cannot pass;
though the waves toss, they cannot prevail,
    though they roar, they cannot pass over it.
²³ But this people has a stubborn and rebellious heart;
    they have turned aside and gone away.
