Jeremiah 5, verse 20-23
Source: Bible New International Version
Not One Is Upright
Announce this to the descendants of Jacob and proclaim it in Judah: 21 Hear this, you foolish and senseless people, who have eyes but do not see, who have ears but do not hear:22 Should you not fear me?” declares the Lord. “Should you not tremble in my presence? I made the sand a boundary for the sea, an everlasting barrier it cannot cross. The waves may roll, but they cannot prevail; they may roar, but they cannot cross it. 23 But these people have stubborn and rebellious hearts; they have turned aside and gone away.20 خداوند فرماتا ہے یعقوب کے گھرانے میں اس بات کا اشتہار دو
اور یہوداہ میں اس کي منادی کرو اور کہو۔
21 اس پیغام کو سنو،
’تم بے وقوف لوگو، تمہیں سمجھ نہیں ہے۔
تم لوگو ں کی آنکھیں ہیں،
لیکن تم دیکھتے نہیں۔
تم لوگوں کے کان ہیں،
لیکن تم سنتے نہیں۔
22 خداوند فرماتا ہے، “کیا تم مجھ سے نہیں ڈرتے؟ ”
“ کیا تم میری موجودگی میں تھر تھراؤ گے نہیں
جس نے سمندری ساحل کو اور سمندر کی حد کو قائم کیا
تا کہ وہ اپنے کنارے سے آگے نہیں بڑھ سکے۔
حالانکہ لہریں اٹھتی ہیں شور مچاتی ہیں۔
لیکن وہ اس حد کو پار نہیں کر سکتی ہیں۔
23 لیکن خداوند کے لوگ ضدّی ہیں۔
وہ ہمیشہ میرے خلاف جانے کا منصوبہ بناتے ہیں۔
وہ مجھ سے مڑے ہیں اور مجھ سے دور چلے
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
These nations will not only eat your crops but devour your sons and daughters and your land will be desolated
God said when people will ask you why has the Lord done this to you – you will tell them as we serve foreign gods in our own land so now we will serve foreigners in a land not our own
God says you can't understand me i who kept sesas in its boundaries through sand - it can't cross it - but you are rebellious people and gone away from 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
