Jeremiah 5:7 - The Message

"Why should I even bother with you any longer?
   Your children wander off, leaving me,
Taking up with gods
   that aren’t even gods.
I satisfied their deepest needs, and then they went off with the ’sacred’ whores,
   left me for orgies in sex shrines!
A bunch of well-groomed, lusty stallions,
   each one pawing and snorting for his neighbor’s wife.
Do you think I’m going to stand around and do nothing?"
   God’s Decree.
"Don’t you think I’ll take serious measures
   against a people like this?
