You live in the midst of deception; in their deceit they refuse to acknowledge me,” declares the Lord.

Jeremiah, you live among people who tell lies. When they lie, they refuse to pay any attention to me,” announces the Lord.

Heaping oppression upon oppression, and deceit upon deceit, they refuse to know me, declares the Lord.

They pile lie upon lie and utterly refuse to acknowledge me,” says the Lord.

You live in a world of deception. In their deception they refuse to know me. This is the LORD’s declaration.

Your dwelling place is in the midst of deceit; Through deceit they refuse to know Me,” says the Lord.

Thy habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know me, saith Jehovah.

Your habitation is in the middle of deceit. Through deceit, they refuse to know me,” says Yahweh.

Because I called and you refused, I stretched out my hand and no one paid attention;

And this is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the Light; for their deeds were evil.For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light, so that his deeds will not be exposed.

Because they hated knowledge And did not choose the fear of the Lord.

But I was like a gentle lamb led to the slaughter; And I did not know that they had devised plots against me, saying,“ Let’s destroy the tree with its fruit, And let’s cut him off from the land of the living, So that his name will no longer be remembered.”

This wicked people, who refuse to listen to My words, who walk in the stubbornness of their hearts and have followed other gods to serve them and to bow down to them, let them be just like this undergarment which is completely useless.

Yet they say to God,‘ Go away from us! We do not even desire the knowledge of Your ways.Who is the Almighty, that we should serve Him, And what would we gain if we plead with Him?’

Why has this people, Jerusalem, Turned away in continual apostasy? They hold on to deceit, They refuse to return.

And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a depraved mind, to do those things that are not proper,

Sober up morally and stop sinning, for some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.

Like a cage full of birds, So their houses are full of deceit; Therefore they have become great and rich.

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Since you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being My priest. Since you have forgotten the Law of your God, I also will forget your children.

For I have heard the whispering of many,“ Terror on every side! Denounce him; let’s denounce him!” All my trusted friends, Watching for my fall, say:“ Perhaps he will be persuaded, so that we may prevail against him And take our revenge on him.”

Then they said,“ Come and let’s devise plans against Jeremiah. Certainly the Law is not going to be lost by the priest, nor advice by the wise, nor the divine word by the prophet! Come, and let’s strike at him with our tongue, and let’s pay no attention to any of his words.”

Rescue my soul, Lord, from lying lips, From a deceitful tongue.What will He give to you, and what more will He do to you, You deceitful tongue?Sharp arrows of the warrior, With the burning coals of the broom tree!Woe to me, for I reside in Meshech, For I have settled among the tents of Kedar!Too long has my soul had its dwelling With those who hate peace.
