Jeremiah 8:5-7

Tree of Life Version

⁵ Why then has this people—Jerusalem—
    turned away in perpetual backsliding?
They cling to deceit; they refuse to return.
⁶ I listened attentively,
    but they have not spoken what is right.
    No one repents of his wickedness,
        saying, ‘What have I done?’
    Each one turns in his own direction,
        like a horse charging into battle.
⁷ Even the stork in the sky
    knows her appointed times,
    and the turtledove, swallow and crane
        observe the time of their migration,
    but My people do not know
        the judgments of Adonai.
