Jeremiah 5:20-23 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

20. The Lord says, “Tell the descendants of Jacob, tell the people of Judah:

21. Pay attention, you foolish and stupid people, who have eyes, but cannot see, and have ears, but cannot hear.

22. I am the Lord; why don't you fear me? Why don't you tremble before me? I placed the sand as the boundary of the sea, a permanent boundary that it cannot cross. The sea may toss, but it cannot go beyond it; the waves may roar, but they cannot break through.

23. But you people! You are stubborn and rebellious; you have turned aside and left me.
