"“Proclaim this message among the descendants of Jacob. Make it known throughout Judah."
— Jeremiah 5:20, NET Bible
“Declare this in the house of Jacob, and publish it in Judah, saying,”

“You should fear me!” says the LORD.“You should tremble in awe before me! I made the sand to be a boundary for the sea, a permanent barrier that it can never cross. Its waves may roll, but they can never prevail. They may roar, but they can never cross beyond that boundary.”
But these people have stubborn and rebellious hearts. They have turned aside and gone their own way.
