Jeremiah 4:21-23

New King James Version

²¹How long will I see the ^[a]standard,
And hear the sound of the trumpet?

²²“For My people are foolish,
They have not known Me.
They are ^[b]silly children,
And they have no understanding.
^(A)They are wise to do evil,
But to do good they have no knowledge.”

²³^(B)I beheld the earth, and indeed it was ^(C)without form, and void;
And the heavens, they had no light.
