which occurs 33 times in 32 verses in 'Jer'
in the LXX Greek.
Evil generation,
pay attention to the word of the LORD!
Have I been a wilderness to Israel
or a land of dense darkness?
Why do my people claim,
“We will go where we want;[fn]
we will no longer come to you”?
“Will he bear a grudge forever?
Will he be endlessly infuriated? ”
This is what you have said,
but you have done the evil things
you are capable of.
Should I not punish them for these things?
This is the LORD’s declaration.
Should I not avenge myself
on such a nation as this?
“Do you not fear me?
This is the LORD’s declaration.
Do you not tremble before me,
the one who set the sand as the boundary of the sea,
an enduring barrier that it cannot cross?
The waves surge, but they cannot prevail.
They roar but cannot pass over it.
“Should I not punish them for these things?
This is the LORD’s declaration.
Should I not avenge myself
on such a nation as this?
“However, I did give them this command: ‘Obey me, and then I will be your God, and you will be my people. Follow every way I command you so that it may go well with you.’

“You are to say to them: This is what the LORD says:
Do people fall and not get up again?
If they turn away, do they not return?
Listen — the cry of my dear people
from a faraway land,
“Is the LORD no longer in Zion,
her King not within her? ”
Why have they angered me
with their carved images,
with their worthless foreign idols?
Is there no balm in Gilead?
Is there no physician there?
So why has the healing of my dear people
not come about?
Should I not punish them for these things?
This is the LORD’s declaration.
Should I not avenge myself
on such a nation as this?
“But the one who boasts should boast in this:
that he understands and knows me —
that I am the LORD, showing faithful love,
justice, and righteousness on the earth,
for I delight in these things.
This is the LORD’s declaration.
Is my inheritance like a hyena[fn] to me?
Are birds of prey circling her?
Go, gather all the wild animals;
bring them to devour her.
Why are you like a helpless man,
like a warrior unable to save?
Yet you are among us, LORD,
and we bear your name.
Don’t leave us!
“Who will have pity on you, Jerusalem?
Who will show sympathy toward you?
Who will turn aside
to ask about your well-being?

Or does cold water flowing from a distance ever fail?

The next day, when Pashhur released Jeremiah from the stocks, Jeremiah said to him, “The LORD does not call you Pashhur, but Terror Is on Every Side,[fn]
“Beware! I am against you,
you who sit above the valley,
you atop the rocky plateau —
this is the LORD’s declaration —
you who say, “Who can come down against us?
Who can enter our hiding places? ”
“but he will die in the place where they deported him, never seeing this land again.”
“Now when these people or a prophet or a priest asks you, ‘What is the burden[fn] of the LORD? ’ you will respond to them, ‘What is the burden? I will throw you away! This is the LORD’s declaration.’
“But know for certain that if you put me to death, you will bring innocent blood on yourselves, on this city, and on its residents, for it is certain the LORD has sent me to speak all these things directly to you.”
“Rather, each will die for his own iniquity. Anyone who eats sour grapes — his own teeth will be set on edge.
The officials then said to the king, “This man ought to die, because he is weakening the morale[fn] of the warriors who remain in this city and of all the people by speaking to them in this way. This man is not pursuing the welfare of this people, but their harm.”
