Jeremiah 5:5-7

Names of God Bible

⁵ Let me go to important people and speak to them.
    They know the way of Yahweh
        and the justice that Elohim demands.”
            But they, too, had broken off their yokes^[a]
                and torn off their chains.
⁶ That is why a lion from the forest will attack them.
    A wolf from the wilderness will destroy them.
    A leopard will lie in ambush outside their cities.
        All who leave the cities will be torn to pieces,
            because they rebel so often
                and they become more and more unfaithful.
