Jeremiah 5:1
| ← Jeremiah 4:31 | Jeremiah 5:1 (KJV) | Jeremiah 5:2 → |
|---|---|---|
For I have heard a voice as of a woman in travail, [and] the anguish as of her that bringeth forth her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, [that] bewaileth herself, [that] spreadeth her hands, [saying], Woe [is] me now! for my soul is wearied because of murderers.
|
Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be [any] that executeth judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it.
|
And though they say, The LORD liveth; surely they swear falsely.
