Jeremiah 8:4-6

Say to them, The LORD proclaims: When people fall down, don’t they get up? When they turn aside, don’t they turn back? Why then does this people, rebellious Jerusalem, persistently turn away from me? They cling to deceit and refuse to return. I have listened carefully but haven’t heard a word of truth from them. No one regrets their wrongdoing; no one says, “What have I done?” Everyone turns to their own course, like a stallion dashing into the thick of battle.
