JEREMIAH 8:4-17
« Jeremiah 7 | Jeremiah 8 | Jeremiah 9 »
Sin and Treachery4 “You shall say to them, Thus says the Lord:When men fall, do they not rise again?If one turns away, does he not return? 5 Why then has this people turned awayin perpetual backsliding?They hold fast to deceit;they refuse to return. 6 I have paid attention and listened,but they have not spoken rightly;no man relents of his evil,saying, ‘What have I done?’Everyone turns to his own course,like a horse plunging headlong into battle. 7 Even the stork in the heavensknows her times,and the turtledove, swallow, and cranekeep the time of their coming,but my people know notthe rules of the Lord.The ESV® Bible (The Holy Bible, English Standard Version® copyright © 2001 by Crossway Bibles, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers.
