5 Why then is this people of Jerusalem slidden back By a perpetual backsliding? They hold fast deceit, They refuse to return. 6 I attended and listened, But they spoke not aright; No man repenteth him of his wickedness, Saying: 'What have I done?' Every one turneth away in his course, As a horse that rusheth headlong in the battle. Jeremiah 8:5-6, JPS Tanakh 1917. Public domain.
