Jeremiah 5:22-24

Christian Standard Bible

²² Do you not fear me?
This is the Lord’s declaration.
Do you not tremble before me,
the one who set the sand as the boundary of the sea,
an enduring barrier that it cannot cross?^(A)
The waves surge, but they cannot prevail.
They roar but cannot pass over it.
²³ But these people have stubborn and rebellious hearts.^(B)
They have turned aside and have gone away.
²⁴ They have not said to themselves,
‘Let’s fear the Lord our God,^(C)
who gives the seasonal rains, both autumn and spring,^(D)
who guarantees to us the fixed weeks of the harvest.’
