Jeremiah 5:30 Context
28They are waxen fat, they shine: yea they ouerpasse the deedes of the wicked: they iudge not the cause, the cause of the fatherlesse, yet they prosper: and the right of the needy doe they not iudge. 29Shall I not visit for these things, saith the Lord ? shall not my soule be auenged on such a nation as this? 30¶ A wonderfull and horrible thing is committed in the land. 31The prophets prophecie falsely, and the priests beare rule by their meanes, and my people loue to haue it so: and what will yee doe in the end therof?
