Jeremiah 6:14-16
New International Version
14 They dress the wound of my people
as though it were not serious.
‘Peace, peace,’ they say,
when there is no peace.(A)
15 Are they ashamed of their detestable conduct?
No, they have no shame at all;
they do not even know how to blush.(B)
So they will fall among the fallen;
they will be brought down when I punish(C) them,”
says the Lord.
16 This is what the Lord says:
Jeremiah 6:14-16
King James Version
14 They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
15 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, saith the Lord.
16 Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.

14 They have also (A)healed the [a]hurt of My people [b]slightly,
(B)Saying, ‘Peace, peace!’
When there is no peace.
15 Were they (C)ashamed when they had committed abomination?

At the time I punish them,
They shall be cast down,” says the Lord.
