Jeremiah 5:4-6

Rotherham(i) 4 And, I, said,––Only, poor people, are, they,––They act foolishly, For they know not, the way of Yahweh, the justice of their God! 5 I will betake me unto the great men, and will speak, with them! For, they, know, the way of Yahweh, the justice of their God! Yea but, they, with one accord, have, broken the yoke, torn off the bands. 6 For this cause, hath the lion out of the forest smitten them, The wolf of the waste plains, preyeth, upon them, The leopard, is keeping watch over their cities, Every one that goeth out from thence, is torn in pieces,––For they have multiplied their transgressions, Numerous, are their apostasies.
