Jeremiah 9:2-8

Oh that
<05414> (8799)

I had in the wilderness
<04057>

a lodging place
<04411>

of wayfaring men
<0732> (8802)_;

that I might leave
<05800> (8799)

my people
<05971>_,

and go
<03212> (8799)

from them! for they [be] all adulterers
<05003> (8764)_,

an assembly
<06116>

of treacherous men
<0898> (8802)_.

And they bend
<01869> (8686)

their tongues
<03956>

[like] their bow
<07198>

[for] lies
<08267>_:

but they are not valiant
<01396> (8804)

for the truth
<0530>

upon the earth
<0776>_;

for they proceed
<03318> (8804)

from evil
<07451>

to evil
<07451>_,

and they know
<03045> (8804)

not me, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

Take ye heed
<08104> (8734)

every one
<0376>

of his neighbour
<07453>_,

and trust
<0982> (8799)

ye not in any brother
<0251>_:

for every brother
<0251>

will utterly
<06117> (8800)

supplant
<06117> (8799)_,

and every neighbour
<07453>

will walk
<01980> (8799)

with slanders
<07400>_.

{neighbour: or, friend}

And they will deceive
<02048> (8762)

every one
<0376>

his neighbour
<07453>_,

and will not speak
<01696> (8762)

the truth
<0571>_:

they have taught
<03925> (8765)

their tongue
<03956>

to speak
<01696> (8763)

lies
<08267>_,

[and] weary
<03811> (8738)

themselves to commit iniquity
<05753> (8687)_.

{deceive: or, mock}

Thine habitation
<03427> (8800)

[is] in the midst
<08432>

of deceit
<04820>_;

through deceit
<04820>

they refuse
<03985> (8765)

to know
<03045> (8800)

me, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

Behold, I will melt
<06884> (8802)

them, and try
<0974> (8804)

them; for how shall I do
<06213> (8799)

for
<06440>

the daughter
<01323>

of my people
<05971>_?

Their tongue
<03956>

[is as] an arrow
<02671>

shot out
<07819> (8803)_;

it speaketh
<01696> (8765)

deceit
<04820>_:

[one] speaketh
<01696> (8762)

peaceably
<07965>

to his neighbour
<07453>

with his mouth
<06310>_,

but in heart
<07130>

he layeth
<07760> (8799)

his wait
<0696>_.

{in heart: Heb. in the midst of him} {his wait: or, wait for him}
