Jeremiah 5:24-26

International Standard Version

²⁴They don’t say to themselves,
    ‘Let’s fear the Lord our God,
who gives rain in its season,
    both the autumn and the spring rain.
He sets aside for us the weeks appointed
    for the harvest.’
²⁵Your iniquities have turned these things away,
    and your sins have held back from you what is good.

²⁶“Evil men are found among my people.
They lie in wait like someone who traps birds.
They set a trap,
but they do so to catch people.
