Is there no healer in Gilead? Is there no medicine there? Why then have the people I love not been healed?

“Jeremiah, say to the people, ‘YAHWEH says: “ ‘Don’t people get back up when they fall down? Don’t they turn around when they take the wrong road?

“Even the stork in the skies knows her season of migration. And migratory birds—the turtledove, the swallow, and the crane — instinctively take flight according to the times I have set for them, but my people pay no attention to the orders of YAHWEH.

I have listened carefully to what they say, but nothing they say is right. No one is sorry about his sin, saying, “What have I done wrong?” Everyone keeps on going his own way, like a war-horse plunging headlong into battle.

The know-it-alls will be shamed, terrorized, and trapped. They walked away from the word of YAHWEH, so wisdom walked away from them.
