Hear this, O foolish and senseless people, who have eyes, but see not, who have ears, but hear not. Do you fear me? declares the LORD. Do you not tremble before me? I placed the sand as the boundary for the sea, a perpetual barrier that it cannot pass; though the waves toss, they cannot prevail; though they roar, they cannot pass over it. But this people has a stubborn and rebellious heart; they have turned aside and gone away. They do not say in their hearts, ‘Let us fear the LORD our God, who gives the rain and the spring rain, and keeps for us the weeks appointed for the harvest.’

Jeremiah 5:21-24
