JER 8:6 I hearkened and heard, but they spake not aright: no man
repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? every one
turned to his course, as the horse rusheth into the battle.
JER 8:7 Yea, the stork in the heaven knoweth her appointed times; and
the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time of their
coming; but my people know not the judgment of the LORD.
JER 8:8 How do ye say, We are wise, and the law of the LORD is with us?
Lo, certainly in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes is in vain.
JER 8:9 The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they
have rejected the word of the LORD; and what wisdom is in them?
