Jeremiah 12:1-2

New International Version - UK

12 You are always righteous, Lord,
    when I bring a case before you.
Yet I would speak with you about your justice:
    why does the way of the wicked prosper?
    Why do all the faithless live at ease?
² You have planted them, and they have taken root;
    they grow and bear fruit.
You are always on their lips
    but far from their hearts.
