Jeremiah 5:2-4
New American Standard Bible 1995
2 “And (A)although they say, ‘As the Lord lives,’
Surely they swear falsely.”
3 O Lord, do not (B)Your eyes look for [a]truth?
You have (C)smitten them,
But they did not [b]weaken;
You have consumed them,
But they (D)refused to take correction.
They have (E)made their faces harder than rock;
They have refused to repent.
4 Then I said, “They are only the poor,
They are foolish;
For they (F)do not know the way of the Lord
Or the ordinance of their God.

3 Lord, do not your eyes(C) look for truth?
You struck(D) them, but they felt no pain;
you crushed them, but they refused correction.(E)
They made their faces harder than stone(F)
and refused to repent.(G)
4 I thought, “These are only the poor;
they are foolish,(H)
for they do not know(I) the way of the Lord,
the requirements of their God.
