Jeremiah 8:11-13
International Standard Version
11 They have treated my people’s[a] wound
superficially, telling them, ‘Peace, peace,’
when there is no peace.
12 Are they ashamed because they have done
what is repugnant to God?[b]
They weren’t ashamed at all;
they don’t even know how to blush!
Therefore they’ll fall with those who fall.
When I punish them, they’ll be brought down,”
says the Lord.
13 “I would have gathered them,”
declares the Lord,
“but there were no grapes on the vine,
and no figs on the fig tree,
and their leaves were withered.
What I’ve given them has been taken away.”’”
