acv - Jeremiah:8:4-9

acv@Jeremiah:8:4 @ Moreover thou shall say to them, Thus says LORD: Shall men fall, and not rise up again? Shall he turn away, and not return?

acv@Jeremiah:8:5 @ Why then has this people of Jerusalem slid back by a perpetual backsliding? They hold firm deceit. They refuse to return.

acv@Jeremiah:8:6 @ I hearkened and heard, but they did not speak aright. No man repents of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? Everyone turns to his course as a horse that rushes headlong in the battle.

acv@Jeremiah:8:7 @ Yea, the stork in the heavens knows her appointed times, and the turtledove and the swallow and the crane observe the time of their coming, but my people know not the law of LORD.

acv@Jeremiah:8:8 @ How can ye say, We are wise, and the law of LORD is with us? But, behold, the FALSE pen of the scribes has wrought falsely.

acv@Jeremiah:8:9 @ The wise men are put to shame. They are dismayed and taken. Lo, they have rejected the word of LORD, and what manner of wisdom is in them?
