Jeremiah 5:22-24

Good News Translation

^22 (A)I am the Lord; why don't you fear me? Why don't you tremble before me? I placed the sand as the boundary of the sea, a permanent boundary that it cannot cross. The sea may toss, but it cannot go beyond it; the waves may roar, but they cannot break through. ²³ But you people! You are stubborn and rebellious; you have turned aside and left me. ²⁴ You never thought to honor me, even though I send the autumn rains and the spring rains and give you the harvest season each year.
