Jeremiah 5:1

5:1

Run ye to and fro
<07751> (8786)

through the streets
<02351>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and see
<07200> (8798)

now, and know
<03045> (8798)_,

and seek
<01245> (8761)

in the broad places
<07339>

thereof, if ye can find
<04672> (8799)

a man
<0376>_,

if there be
<03426>

[any] that executeth
<06213> (8802)

judgment
<04941>_,

that seeketh
<01245> (8764)

the truth
<0530>_;

and I will pardon
<05545> (8799)

it.

Jeremiah 9:3-8

9:3

And they bend
<01869> (8686)

their tongues
<03956>

[like] their bow
<07198>

[for] lies
<08267>_:

but they are not valiant
<01396> (8804)

for the truth
<0530>

upon the earth
<0776>_;

for they proceed
<03318> (8804)

from evil
<07451>

to evil
<07451>_,

and they know
<03045> (8804)

not me, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

9:4

Take ye heed
<08104> (8734)

every one
<0376>

of his neighbour
<07453>_,

and trust
<0982> (8799)

ye not in any brother
<0251>_:

for every brother
<0251>

will utterly
<06117> (8800)

supplant
<06117> (8799)_,

and every neighbour
<07453>

will walk
<01980> (8799)

with slanders
<07400>_.

{neighbour: or, friend}

9:5

And they will deceive
<02048> (8762)

every one
<0376>

his neighbour
<07453>_,

and will not speak
<01696> (8762)

the truth
<0571>_:

they have taught
<03925> (8765)

their tongue
<03956>

to speak
<01696> (8763)

lies
<08267>_,

[and] weary
<03811> (8738)

themselves to commit iniquity
<05753> (8687)_.

{deceive: or, mock}

9:6

Thine habitation
<03427> (8800)

[is] in the midst
<08432>

of deceit
<04820>_;

through deceit
<04820>

they refuse
<03985> (8765)

to know
<03045> (8800)

me, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

9:7

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

Behold, I will melt
<06884> (8802)

them, and try
<0974> (8804)

them; for how shall I do
<06213> (8799)

for
<06440>

the daughter
<01323>

of my people
<05971>_?

9:8

Their tongue
<03956>

[is as] an arrow
<02671>

shot out
<07819> (8803)_;

it speaketh
<01696> (8765)

deceit
<04820>_:

[one] speaketh
<01696> (8762)

peaceably
<07965>

to his neighbour
<07453>

with his mouth
<06310>_,

but in heart
<07130>

he layeth
<07760> (8799)

his wait
<0696>_.

{in heart: Heb. in the midst of him} {his wait: or, wait for him}

Isaiah 59:14-15

59:14

And judgment
<04941>

is turned away
<05253> (8717)

backward
<0268>_,

and justice
<06666>

standeth
<05975> (8799)

afar off
<07350>_:

for truth
<0571>

is fallen
<03782> (8804)

in the street
<07339>_,

and equity
<05229>

cannot
<03201> (8799)

enter
<0935> (8800)_.

59:15

Yea, truth
<0571>

faileth
<05737> (8737)_;

and he [that] departeth
<05493> (8804)

from evil
<07451>

maketh himself a prey
<07997> (8711)_:

and the LORD
<03068>

saw
<07200> (8799)

[it], and it displeased
<03415> (8799) <05869>

him that [there was] no judgment
<04941>_.

{maketh...: or, is accounted mad} {it displeased...: Heb. it was evil in his eyes}

Hosea 4:1

4:1

Hear
<08085> (8798)

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

ye children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_:

for the LORD
<03068>

hath a controversy
<07379>

with the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of the land
<0776>_,

because [there is] no truth
<0571>_,

nor mercy
<02617>_,

nor knowledge
<01847>

of God
<0430>

in the land
<0776>_.

Micah 7:2-5

7:2

The good
<02623>

[man] is perished
<06> (8804)

out of the earth
<0776>_:

and [there is] none upright
<03477>

among men
<0120>_:

they all lie in wait
<0693> (8799)

for blood
<01818>_;

they hunt
<06679> (8799)

every man
<0376>

his brother
<0251>

with a net
<02764>_.

{good: or, godly, or, merciful}

7:3

That they may do evil
<07451>

with both hands
<03709>

earnestly
<03190> (8687)_,

the prince
<08269>

asketh
<07592> (8802)_,

and the judge
<08199> (8802)

[asketh] for a reward
<07966>_;

and the great
<01419>

[man], he uttereth
<01696> (8802)

his mischievous
<01942>

desire
<05315>_:

so they wrap it up
<05686> (8762)_.

{his...: Heb. the mischief of his soul}

7:4

The best
<02896>

of them [is] as a brier
<02312>_:

the most upright
<03477>

[is sharper] than a thorn hedge
<04534>_:

the day
<03117>

of thy watchmen
<06822> (8764)

[and] thy visitation
<06486>

cometh
<0935> (8804)_;

now shall be their perplexity
<03998>_.

7:5

Trust
<0539> (8686)

ye not in a friend
<07453>_,

put ye not confidence
<0982> (8799)

in a guide
<0441>_:

keep
<08104> (8798)

the doors
<06607>

of thy mouth
<06310>

from her that lieth
<07901> (8802)

in thy bosom
<02436>_.
