Jeremiah 5:7-9

5:7 The Lord asked,

“How can I leave you unpunished, Jerusalem?

Your people have rejected me

and have worshiped gods that are not gods at all.

Even though I supplied all their needs, they were like an unfaithful wife to me.

They went flocking to the houses of prostitutes.

5:8 They are like lusty, well-fed stallions.

Each of them lusts after his neighbor’s wife.

5:9 I will surely punish them for doing such things!” says the Lord.

“I will surely bring retribution on such a nation as this!”

Jeremiah 5:25

5:25 Your misdeeds have stopped these things from coming.

Your sins have deprived you of my bounty.’
