‘Will you not tremble at My presence,
Who have placed the sand as the bbound of the sea,
By a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass beyond it?
And though its waves toss to and fro,
Yet they cannot prevail;
Though they roar, yet they cannot pass over it.
“Let us now fear the Lord our God,
aWho gives rain, both the bformer and the latter, in its season.
cHe reserves for us the appointed weeks of the harvest.”
They alie in wait as one who sets snares;
They set a trap;
They catch men.
So their houses are full of deceit.
Therefore they have become great and grown rich.
| << Jeremiah 5:23 | Jeremiah 5:25 >> |
