Jeremiah 5:3-6
Legacy Standard Bible
3 O Yahweh, do not (A)Your eyes look for faithfulness?
You have (B)struck them,
But they did not [a]weaken;
You have consumed them,
But they (C)refused to receive discipline.
They have (D)made their faces stronger than rock;
They have refused to [b]repent.
4 Then I said, “They are only the poor;
They are foolish;
For they (E)do not know the way of Yahweh
Or the legal judgment of their God.
5 Let me go to the great
And let me speak to them,
For (F)they know the way of Yahweh
And the legal judgment of their God.”
But they too, altogether, have (G)broken the yoke
And torn apart the bonds.
6 Therefore (H)a lion from the forest will strike them down;
A (I)wolf of the deserts will devastate them;
A (J)leopard is watching their cities.
Everyone who goes out of them will be torn in pieces
Because their (K)transgressions are many;
Their acts of faithlessness are mighty.

Jeremiah 5:3-6
English Standard Version
3 O Lord, do not your eyes look for truth?
(A)You have struck them down,
but they felt no anguish;
you have consumed them,
but they refused to take correction.
(B)They have made their faces harder than rock;
they have refused to repent.
4 Then I said, “These are only the poor;
they have no sense;
(C)for they do not know the way of the Lord,
the justice of their God.
5 I will go to the great
and will speak to them,
for they know the way of the Lord,
the justice of their God.”
(D)But they all alike had broken the yoke;
they had burst the bonds.
6 Therefore (E)a lion from the forest shall strike them down;
a (F)wolf from the desert shall devastate them.
(G)A leopard is watching their cities;
everyone who goes out of them shall be torn in pieces,
because their transgressions are many,
their (H)apostasies are great.
