Jeremiah 5:20-22

English Standard Version

²⁰ Declare this in the house of Jacob;
    proclaim it in Judah:
²¹ “Hear this, ^(A)O foolish and senseless people,
    ^(B)who have eyes, but see not,
    who have ears, but hear not.
^22 (C)Do you not fear me? declares the Lord.
    Do you not tremble before me?
I placed the sand ^(D)as the boundary for the sea,
    a perpetual barrier that it cannot pass;
though the waves toss, they cannot prevail;
    though ^(E)they roar, they cannot pass over it.
