Jeremiah 9:2-9
New International Version
2 Oh, that I had in the desert(A)
a lodging place for travelers,
so that I might leave my people
and go away from them;
for they are all adulterers,(B)
a crowd of unfaithful(C) people.
3 “They make ready their tongue
like a bow, to shoot lies;(D)
it is not by truth
that they triumph[a] in the land.
They go from one sin to another;
they do not acknowledge(E) me,”
declares the Lord.
4 “Beware of your friends;(F)
do not trust anyone in your clan.(G)
For every one of them is a deceiver,[b](H)
and every friend a slanderer.(I)
5 Friend deceives friend,(J)
and no one speaks the truth.(K)
They have taught their tongues to lie;(L)
they weary themselves with sinning.
6 You[c] live in the midst of deception;(M)
in their deceit they refuse to acknowledge me,”
declares the Lord.
7 Therefore this is what the Lord Almighty says:
“See, I will refine(N) and test(O) them,
for what else can I do
because of the sin of my people?
8 Their tongue(P) is a deadly arrow;
it speaks deceitfully.
With their mouths they all speak cordially to their neighbors,(Q)
but in their hearts they set traps(R) for them.(S)
9 Should I not punish them for this?”
declares the Lord.
“Should I not avenge(T) myself
on such a nation as this?”
