Jeremiah 5:1-2

Easy-to-Read Version

The Evil of the People of Judah

5 The Lord says, “Walk the streets of Jerusalem. Look around and think about these things. Search the public squares of the city. See if you can find one good person, one who does honest things and who searches for the truth. If you find one good person, I will forgive Jerusalem. ² The people make promises and say, ‘As the Lord lives.’ But they don’t really mean it!”
