Jeremiah 5:1-3 English Standard Version (ESV)

1. Run to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem,look and take note!Search her squares to see if you can find a man,one who does justiceand seeks truth, that I may pardon her.

2. Though they say, “As the Lord lives,” yet they swear falsely.

3. O Lord, do not your eyes look for truth? You have struck them down,but they felt no anguish;you have consumed them,but they refused to take correction. They have made their faces harder than rock;they have refused to repent.
