8"'At that time, declares the LORD, the bones of the kings and officials of Judah, the bones of the priests and prophets, and the bones of the people of Jerusalem will be removed from their graves.H6256H5002H3068H3318H6106H4428H3063H6106H8269H6106H3548H6106H5030H6106H3427H3389H69132They will be exposed to the sun and the moon and all the stars of the heavens, which they have loved and served and which they have followed and consulted and worshiped. They will not be gathered up or buried, but will be like refuse lying on the ground.H7849H8121H3394H6635H8064H157H5647H310H1980H1875H7812H622H6912H1828H6440H1273Wherever I banish them, all the survivors of this evil nation will prefer death to life, declares the LORD Almighty.'H4194H977H2416H7611H7604H7451H4940H7604H4725H5080H5002H3068H66354"Say to them, 'This is what the LORD says: "'When men fall down, do they not get up? When a man turns away, does he not return?H559H559H3068H5307H6965H7725H77255Why then have these people turned away? Why does Jerusalem always turn away? They cling to deceit; they refuse to return.H5971H3389H7725H5329H4878H2388H8649H3985H77256I 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.H7181H8085H1696H376H5162H5921H7451H559H6213H7725H4794H5483H7857H44217Even the stork in the sky knows her appointed seasons, and the dove, the swift and the thrush observe the time of their migration.

Since they have rejected the word of the LORD, what kind of wisdom do they have?H2450H3001H2865H3920H3988H1697H3068H245110Therefore I will give their wives to other men and their fields to new owners. From the least to the greatest, all are greedy for gain; prophets and priests alike, all practice deceit.H5414H802H312H7704H3423H6996H1419H1214H1215H5030H3548H6213H826711They dress the wound of my people as though it were not serious.

No, they have no shame at all; they do not even know how to blush.
