Jeremiah 5, verse 14-16
Source: Bible New International Version
Not One Is Upright
14 Therefore this is what the Lord God Almighty says:
Because the people have spoken these words, I will make my words in your mouth a fire and these people the wood it consumes. 15 People of Israel,” declares the Lord, “I am bringing a distant nation against you— an ancient and enduring nation, a people whose language you do not know, whose speech you do not understand. 16 Their quivers are like an open grave; all of them are mighty warriors.
14 خداوند قادر مطلق نے یہ سب کہا:
“ان لوگو ں نے کہا کہ میں انہیں سزا نہیں دوں گا۔
اس لئے اے یرمیاہ! جو کلام میں تجھے دے رہا ہوں، وہ آگ جیسا ہو گا
اور وہ لوگ لکڑی جیسے ہوں گے۔
آ گ ساری لکڑی کو جلاڈالے گی۔”
15 اے اسرائیل کے گھرانے! یہ کلام خداوند کا ہے،
“تم پر حملہ کے لئے میں ایک بہت دور کی قو م کو جلدی ہی لا ؤں گا۔
یہ ایک قدیم قو م ہے۔
یہ ایک زبردست قوم ہے۔
اس قوم کے لوگ وہ زبان بولتے ہیں جسے تم نہیں سمجھتے۔
تم یہ نہیں جان سکو گے کہ وہ کیاکہتے ہیں۔
16 ان کا ترکش کھلی قبر ہے، My point of view about above verses
God says go up and down and look around and try to find one person whose deals are honest and who seek truth then I will spear this city – but still they are swearing falsely on my name
God said why I should forgive you as your children have forsaken me and sworn by gods that are not gods although i provide all their needs so
God said destroy them as they are unfaithful to their Lord but not completely
These people lied completely about God and say – no harm will come to us inform of sword or famine
God said prophets are like wind and no word in them – so let what they say be done to them
God said i will afflict Isralites through other nations as they did not honor me
May God give us wisdom to understand Him through His Word as He speaks with us through this word and prophets - and apply it in our lives to have a blissful life on earth
