Jeremiah 5:24-26

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁴ They do not say to themselves,
    “We should respect the Lord our God.
He sends rain for us in the autumn and in the spring.
    He makes sure that we have a harvest from our crops.”
²⁵ But instead, your sins have stopped these good things.
    You have not received God's blessing.
²⁶ There are wicked men among my people.
They like to catch people and rob them.
    They hide like someone who wants to catch a bird.
They put out their traps to kill what they want.
