Isaiah 1:5
New American Standard Bible 1995
5 Where will you be stricken again,
As you (A)continue in your rebellion?
The whole head is (B)sick
And the whole heart is faint.
Jeremiah 5:1-5
New American Standard Bible 1995
Jerusalem’s Godlessness
5 “(A)Roam to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem,
And look now and take note.
And seek in her open squares,
If you can (B)find a man,
(C)If there is one who does justice, who seeks [a]truth,
Then I will pardon her.
2 “And (D)although they say, ‘As the Lord lives,’
Surely they swear falsely.”
3 O Lord, do not (E)Your eyes look for [b]truth?
You have (F)smitten them,
But they did not [c]weaken;
You have consumed them,
But they (G)refused to take correction.
They have (H)made their faces harder than rock;
They have refused to repent.
4 Then I said, “They are only the poor,
They are foolish;
For they (I)do not know the way of the Lord
Or the ordinance of their God.
5 “I will go to the great
And will speak to them,
For (J)they know the way of the Lord
And the ordinance of their God.”
But they too, with one accord, have (K)broken the yoke
And burst the bonds.
