Jeremiah 5:3-8
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 5
3
Lord
, do Your eyes not
look
for honesty?
You have struck them,
But they did not weaken;
You have consumed them,
But
they refused to accept discipline.
They have made their faces harder than rock;
They have refused to repent.
4
Then I said, 'They are only the poor,
They are foolish;
For they do not know the way of the
Lord
Or
the judgment of their God.
5
I will go to the great
And speak to them,
For they know the way of the
Lord
And
the judgment of their God.'
But together they
too
have broken the yoke
And
burst the restraints.
6
Therefore a lion from the forest will kill them,
A wolf of the deserts will destroy them,
A leopard is watching their cities.
Everyone who goes out of them will be torn in pieces,
Because their wrongdoings are many,
Their apostasies are numerous.
7
'Why should I forgive you?
Your sons have forsaken Me
And sworn by those who are not gods.
When I had fed them to the full,
They committed adultery
And stayed at the prostitute’s house.
8
They were well-fed lusty horses,
Each one neighing at his neighbor’s wife.
King James Version
Chapter 5
3
O
Lord
, are not thine eyes upon the truth? thou hast stricken them, but they have not grieved; thou hast consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.
4
Therefore I said, Surely these are poor; they are foolish: for they know not the way of the
Lord
, nor the judgment of their God.
5
I will get me unto the great men, and will speak unto them; for they have known the way of the
Lord
, and the judgment of their God: but these have altogether broken the yoke, and burst the bonds.
6
Wherefore a lion out of the forest shall slay them, and a wolf of the evenings shall spoil them, a leopard shall watch over their cities: every one that goeth out thence shall be torn in pieces: because their transgressions are many, and their backslidings are increased.
7
How shall I pardon thee for this? thy children have forsaken me, and sworn by them that are no gods: when I had fed them to the full, they then committed adultery, and assembled themselves by troops in the harlots' houses.
8
They were as fed horses in the morning: every one neighed after his neighbour's wife.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 5
3
Lord
, don’t your eyes look for faithfulness?
You have struck them, but they felt no pain.
You finished them off,
but they refused to accept discipline.
They made their faces harder than rock,
and they refused to return.
4
Then I thought:
They are just the poor;
they have been foolish.
For they don’t understand the way of the
Lord
,
the justice of their God.
5
I will go to the powerful
and speak to them.
Surely they know the way of the
Lord
,
the justice of their God.
However, these also had broken the yoke
and torn off the chains.
6
Therefore, a lion from the forest will strike them down.
A wolf from arid plains will ravage them.
A leopard stalks their cities.
Anyone who leaves them will be torn to pieces
because their rebellious acts are many,
their unfaithful deeds numerous.
7
Why should I forgive you?
Your children have abandoned me
and sworn by those who are not gods.
I satisfied their needs, yet they committed adultery;
they gashed themselves at the prostitute’s house.
8
They are well-fed, eager stallions,
each neighing after someone else’s wife.
New Living Translation
Chapter 5
3
Lord
, you are searching for honesty.
You struck your people,
but they paid no attention.
You crushed them,
but they refused to be corrected.
They are determined, with faces set like stone;
they have refused to repent.
4
Then I said, 'But what can we expect from the poor?
They are ignorant.
They don’t know the ways of the
Lord
.
They don’t understand God’s laws.
5
So I will go and speak to their leaders.
Surely they know the ways of the
Lord
and understand God’s laws.'
But the leaders, too, as one man,
had thrown off God’s yoke
and broken his chains.
6
So now a lion from the forest will attack them;
a wolf from the desert will pounce on them.
A leopard will lurk near their towns,
tearing apart any who dare to venture out.
For their rebellion is great,
and their sins are many.
7
'How can I pardon you?
For even your children have turned from me.
They have sworn by gods that are not gods at all!
I fed my people until they were full.
But they thanked me by committing adultery
and lining up at the brothels.
8
They are well-fed, lusty stallions,
each neighing for his neighbor’s wife.
English Standard Version
Chapter 5
3
O
Lord
, do not your eyes look for truth?
You have struck them down,
but they felt no anguish;
you have consumed them,
but they refused to take correction.
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;
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."
But they all alike had broken the yoke;
they had burst the bonds.
6
Therefore a lion from the forest shall strike them down;
a wolf from the desert shall devastate them.
A leopard is watching their cities;
everyone who goes out of them shall be torn in pieces,
because their transgressions are many,
their apostasies are great.
7
"How can I pardon you?
Your children have forsaken me
and have sworn by those who are no gods.
When I fed them to the full,
they committed adultery
and trooped to the houses of whores.
8
They were well-fed, lusty stallions,
each neighing for his neighbor 's wife.
New International Version
Chapter 5
3
Lord
, do not your eyes look for truth?
You struck them, but they felt no pain;
you crushed them, but they refused correction.
They made their faces harder than stone
and refused to repent.
4
I thought, "These are only the poor;
they are foolish,
for they do not know the way of the
Lord
,
the requirements of their God.
5
So I will go to the leaders
and speak to them;
surely they know the way of the
Lord
,
the requirements of their God."
But with one accord they too had broken off the yoke
and torn off the bonds.
6
Therefore a lion from the forest will attack them,
a wolf from the desert will ravage them,
a leopard will lie in wait near their towns
to tear to pieces any who venture out,
for their rebellion is great
and their backslidings many.
7
"Why should I forgive you?
Your children have forsaken me
and sworn by gods that are not gods.
I supplied all their needs,
yet they committed adultery
and thronged to the houses of prostitutes.
8
They are well-fed, lusty stallions,
each neighing for another man’s wife.
New King James Version
Chapter 5
3
O
Lord
,
are
not Your eyes on the truth?
You have stricken them,
But they have not grieved;
You have consumed them,
But they have refused to receive correction.
They have made their faces harder than rock;
They have refused to return.
4
Therefore I said, “Surely these
are
poor.
They are foolish;
For they do not know the way of the
Lord
,
The judgment of their God.
5
I will go to the great men and speak to them,
For they have known the way of the
Lord
,
The judgment of their God.”
But these have altogether broken the yoke
And
burst the bonds.
6
Therefore a lion from the forest shall slay them,
A wolf of the deserts shall destroy them;
A leopard will watch over their cities.
Everyone who goes out from there shall be torn in pieces,
Because their transgressions are many;
Their backslidings have increased.
7
“How shall I pardon you for this?
Your children have forsaken Me
And sworn by
those
that are not gods.
When I had fed them to the full,
Then they committed adultery
And assembled themselves by troops in the harlots’ houses.
8
They were
like
well-fed lusty stallions;
Every one neighed after his neighbor’s wife.
