Jeremiah 8:4-6

Lexham English Bible

“Do men fall and not stand up?
    If one turns away does he not return?
⁵ Why has this people, Jerusalem, turned away in enduring apostasy?
    They have kept hold of deceit, they have refused to return.^[b]
6 I have listened attentively,
    and I have listened.
They do not speak honestly,
    there is no man who regrets his wickedness, saying, ‘What have I done?’
All of them are turning to their ways of running,
    like a horse plunging into battle.
