Jeremiah 7:28
Therefore you must say to them, ‘This is the nation that would not listen to the voice of the Lord their God and would not receive correction. Truth has perished; it has disappeared from their lips.
But thou shalt say unto them, This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the Lord their God, nor receiveth correction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.
Note correction: or, instruction
You shall tell them, ‘This is the nation that has not listened to the Lord their God’s voice, nor received instruction. Truth has perished, and is cut off from their mouth.’
And thou shalt say unto them, This is the nation that hath not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah their God, nor received instruction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.
