“Will they fall and not rise?
Will one turn away and not return?
“Will they fall and not rise?

5 Why has this people aslidden back,
Jerusalem, in a perpetual backsliding?

cThey refuse to return.
Jerusalem, in a perpetual backsliding?
bThey hold fast to deceit,
cThey refuse to return.
6 aI listened and heard,
But they do not speak aright.
bNo man repented of his wickedness,
Saying, ‘What have I done?’
Everyone turned to his own course,
As the horse rushes into the battle.
But they do not speak aright.
bNo man repented of his wickedness,
Saying, ‘What have I done?’
Everyone turned to his own course,
As the horse rushes into the battle.
7 “Even athe stork in the heavens
Knows her appointed times;
And the turtledove, the swift, and the swallow
Observe the time of their coming.
But bMy people do not know the judgment of the Lord.
