Jeremiah 5:1-9

Run ye to and fro
<07751> (8786)
through the streets
<02351>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and see
<07200> (8798)
now, and know
<03045> (8798)_,
and seek
<01245> (8761)
in the broad places
<07339>
thereof, if ye can find
<04672> (8799)
a man
<0376>_,
if there be
<03426>
[any] that executeth
<06213> (8802)
judgment
<04941>_,
that seeketh
<01245> (8764)
the truth
<0530>_;
and I will pardon
<05545> (8799)
it.
And though they say
<0559> (8799)_,
The LORD
<03068>
liveth
<02416>_;
surely they swear
<07650> (8735)
falsely
<08267>_.
O LORD
<03068>_,
[are] not thine eyes
<05869>
upon the truth
<0530>_?
thou hast stricken
<05221> (8689)
them, but they have not grieved
<02342> (8804)_;
thou hast consumed
<03615> (8765)
them, [but] they have refused
<03985> (8765)
to receive
<03947> (8800)
correction
<04148>_:
they have made their faces
<06440>
harder
<02388> (8765)
than a rock
<05553>_;
they have refused
<03985> (8765)
to return
<07725> (8800)_.
Therefore I said
<0559> (8804)_,
Surely these [are] poor
<01800>_;
they are foolish
<02973> (8738)_:
for they know
<03045> (8804)
not the way
<01870>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
[nor] the judgment
<04941>
of their God
<0430>_.
I will get
<03212> (8799)
me unto the great men
<01419>_,
and will speak
<01696> (8762)
unto them; for they have known
<03045> (8804)
the way
<01870>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
[and] the judgment
<04941>
of their God
<0430>_:
but these have altogether
<03162>
broken
<07665> (8804)
the yoke
<05923>_,
[and] burst
<05423> (8765)
the bonds
<04147>_.
Wherefore a lion
<0738>
out of the forest
<03293>
shall slay
<05221> (8689)
them, [and] a wolf
<02061>
of the evenings
<06160>
shall spoil
<07703> (8799)
them, a leopard
<05246>
shall watch
<08245> (8802)
over their cities
<05892>_:
every one that goeth out
<03318> (8802)
thence shall
<02007>
be torn in pieces
<02963> (8735)_:
because their transgressions
<06588>
are many
<07231> (8804)_,
[and] their backslidings
<04878>
are increased
<06105> (8804)_.
{evenings: or, deserts} {are increased: Heb. are strong}
How
<0335>
shall I pardon
<05545> (8799)
thee for this
<02063>_?
thy children
<01121>
have forsaken
<05800> (8804)
me, and sworn
<07650> (8735)
by [them that are] no
<03808>
gods
<0430>_:
when I had fed them to the full
<07650> (8686)_,
they then committed adultery
<05003> (8799)_,
and assembled themselves by troops
<01413> (8704)
in the harlots
<02181> (8802)_'
houses
<01004>_.
They were [as] fed
<02109> (8716)
horses
<05483>
in the morning
<07904> (8688)_:
every one
<0376>
neighed
<06670> (8799)
after his neighbour's
<07453>
wife
<0802>_.
Shall I not visit
<06485> (8799)
for these [things]? saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_:
and shall not my soul
<05315>
be avenged
<05358> (8691)
on such a nation
<01471>
as this?
