Jeremiah 5:9
Compare all
7 “How shall I pardon you for this?
Your children have forsaken Me
And asworn by those bthat are not gods.
cWhen I had fed them to the full,
Then they committed adultery
And assembled themselves by troops in the harlots’ houses. 
8 aThey were like well-fed lusty stallions;
Every one neighed after his neighbor’s wife. 
9 Shall I not punish them for these things?” says the Lord.
“And shall I not aavenge Myself on such a nation as this? 
10 “Go up on her walls and destroy,
But do not1 make a acomplete end.
Take away her branches,
For they are not the Lord’s. 
11 For athe house of Israel and the house of Judah
Have dealt very treacherously with Me,” says the Lord. 
12 aThey have lied about the Lord,
And said, b“It is not He.
cNeither will1 evil come upon us,
Nor shall we see sword or famine. 
13 And the prophets become wind,
For the word is not in them.
Thus shall it be done to them.”
