Jeremiah 8:3-5

However, I will leave some of these evil people alive and banish them to other places. Yet all the survivors will prefer death over life. For I, Lord YAHWEH, Commander of Angel Armies, have spoken.” “Jeremiah, say to the people, ‘YAHWEH says: “ ‘Don’t people get back up when they fall down? Don’t they turn around when they take the wrong road? So why have you, the people of Jerusalem, continually refused to turn back to me? Why do you cling so tightly to your deception instead of coming home to me?’ ”
