“Say to them, ‘This is what the Lord says:
“ ‘When men fall down, do they not get up?
When a man turns away, do they not return?

Why then have these people turned away? …
They cling to deceit; they refuse to return.
I have listened attentively, but they do not
say what is right.

No one repents of his wickedness, saying,
“What have I done?” Each pursues his own course
like a horse charging into battle.”
Jeremiah 8: 4-6
