Jeremiah 5:2-4

International Children’s Bible

³ Lord, don’t you look for truth in people?
You hit the people of Judah.
    But they didn’t feel any pain.
You crushed them,
    but they refused to learn what is right.
They became more stubborn than a rock.
    They refused to turn back to God.
⁴ But I thought,
    “These are only the poor, foolish people.
They have not learned the way of the Lord.
    They do not know what their God wants them to do.
