Jeremiah 4:21-23

Common English Bible

²¹ How long must I see the battle flags
    and hear the blast of the trumpet?
²² My people are foolish.
    They don’t even know me!
They are thoughtless children
    without understanding;
        they are skilled at doing wrong,
        inept at doing right.
²³ I looked at the earth,
    and it was without shape or form;
        at the heavens
        and there was no light.
