Jeremiah 8:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 And death shall be desired [a]rather than life of all the residue that remaineth of this wicked family, which remain in all the places where I have scattered them, saith the Lord of hosts.
4 Thou shalt say unto them also, Thus saith the Lord, Shall they [b]fall, and not arise? shall he turn away and not turn again?
5 Wherefore is this people of Jerusalem turned back by a perpetual rebellion? they gave themselves to deceit, and would not return.
