Jeremiah 8:5-7

New King James Version

⁵ Why has this people ^(A)slidden back,
Jerusalem, in a perpetual backsliding?
^(B)They hold fast to deceit,
^(C)They refuse to return.
^6 (D)I listened and heard,
But they do not speak aright.
^(E)No man repented of his wickedness,
Saying, ‘What have I done?’
Everyone turned to his own course,
As the horse rushes into the battle.
