New Testament

Jeremiah 5:1-4 God's Word Translation (GW)

1. Walk around the streets of Jerusalem.Look around, and think about these things.Search the city squares.See if you can find anyonewho does what is right and seeks the truth.Then I will forgive Jerusalem.

2. People say, “As the Lord lives. . .”Yet, they lie when they take this oath.

3. Lord, your eyes look for the truth.You strike these people, but they don’t feel it.You crush them, but they refuse to be corrected.They are more stubborn than rocks.They refuse to turn back.

4. I thought, “These are poor, foolish people.They don’t know the way of the Lordand the justice that God demands.
