Jeremiah 5:24-26

Christian Standard Bible

²⁴ They have not said to themselves,
‘Let’s fear the Lord our God,^(A)
who gives the seasonal rains, both autumn and spring,^(B)
who guarantees to us the fixed weeks of the harvest.’
²⁵ Your guilty acts have diverted these things from you.
Your sins have withheld my bounty from you,^(C)
26 for wicked men live among my people.
They watch like hunters^[a] lying in wait.^[b](D)
They set a trap;^(E)
they catch men.
