Jeremiah 5:3-5
Christian Standard Bible
3 Lord, don’t your eyes look for faithfulness?(A)
You have struck them, but they felt no pain.(B)
You finished them off,
but they refused to accept discipline.(C)
They made their faces harder than rock,(D)
and they refused to return.(E)
4 Then I thought:
They are just the poor;
they have been foolish.
For they don’t understand the way of the Lord,(F)
the justice of their God.(G)
5 I will go to the powerful
and speak to them.
Surely they know the way of the Lord,
the justice of their God.(H)
However, these also had broken the yoke
and torn off the chains.(I)
