Jeremiah 4:21-23
New Century Version
Jeremiah 4:21-23
New Century Version
21 How long must I look at the war flag?
How long must I listen to the war trumpet?
22 The Lord says, “My people are foolish.
They do not know me.
They are stupid children;
they don’t understand.
They are skillful at doing evil,
but they don’t know how to do good.”
Disaster Is Coming
23 I looked at the earth,
and it was empty and had no shape.
I looked at the sky,
and its light was gone.

22 For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.
23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.
