Jeremiah 5:5

English Standard Version

5 I will go to the great and will speak to them, for they know the way of the Lord, the justice of their God.” But they all alike had broken the yoke; they had burst the bonds. (Ps 2:3; Ps 107:14; Jer 2:20) 

New International Version

5 So I will go to the leaders and speak to them; surely they know the way of the Lord, the requirements of their God.’ But with one accord they too had broken off the yoke and torn off the bonds. 

New International Reader’s Version

5 So I will go to the leaders. I’ll speak to them. They should know how the LORD wants them to live. They must know what their God requires of them.’ But all of them had broken off the yoke the LORD had put on them. They had torn off the ropes he had tied them up with. 

King James Version

5 I will get me unto the great men, and will speak unto them; for they have known the way of the LORD, and the judgment of their God: but these have altogether broken the yoke, and burst the bonds.
