Jeremiah 5:3-5
New Catholic Bible
3 Do your eyes not search for truth, O Lord?
When you struck them, they felt no anguish;
when you brought them down, they refused correction.
They have made their faces harder than stone
and refused to repent.
4 Then I thought, “These are only the poor;
they tend to act foolishly.
For they do not know the way of the Lord
or the ordinances of their God.
5 Therefore, I will go to their leaders
and speak to them.
Surely they will know the way of the Lord
and their responsibilities to their God.”
But those, too, had broken the yoke
and torn away from their bonds.

Jeremiah 5:3-5
New International Version
3 Lord, do not your eyes(A) look for truth?
You struck(B) them, but they felt no pain;
you crushed them, but they refused correction.(C)
They made their faces harder than stone(D)
and refused to repent.(E)
4 I thought, “These are only the poor;
they are foolish,(F)
for they do not know(G) the way of the Lord,
the requirements of their God.
5 So I will go to the leaders(H)
and speak to them;
surely they know the way of the Lord,
the requirements of their God.”
But with one accord they too had broken off the yoke
and torn off the bonds.(I)
