Jeremiah 8:4-7

⁴“You shall say to them, ‘This is what the Lord says:

“Do people fall and not get up?

Does one turn away and not repent?

5“Why has this people, Jerusalem,

Turned away in continual apostasy?

They hold on to deceit,

They refuse to return.

6“I have listened and heard,

They have spoken what is not right;

No one repented of his wickedness,

Saying, ‘What have I done?’

Everyone turned to his own course,

Like a horse charging into the battle.

7“Even the stork in the sky

Knows her seasons;

And the turtledove, the swallow, and the crane

Keep to the time of their migration;

But My people do not know

The judgment of the Lord.
