Jeremiah 5:2-4
Expanded Bible
2 Although the people say, ‘As surely as the Lord lives!’
they ·don’t really mean it [L swear/take an oath falsely].”
3 Lord, ·don’t you [L do your eyes] look for ·truth [faithfulness] in people?
You struck ·the people of Judah [L them],
but they didn’t feel any ·pain [anguish].
You ·crushed [consumed] them,
but they refused to ·learn what is right [L take your correction/instruction].
·They became more stubborn [L Their faces became harder] than a rock;
they refused to ·turn back to God [L return; repent].
4 But I thought,
“These are only the poor, ·foolish people [L they have no sense].
They ·have not learned [L do not know] the ·way [path] of the Lord
and ·what their God wants them to do [L the ordinances/judgments of their God].

Jeremiah 5:2-4
New International Version
3 Lord, do not your eyes(C) look for truth?
You struck(D) them, but they felt no pain;
you crushed them, but they refused correction.(E)
They made their faces harder than stone(F)
and refused to repent.(G)
4 I thought, “These are only the poor;
they are foolish,(H)
for they do not know(I) the way of the Lord,
the requirements of their God.
