But do not1 make a acomplete end.
Take away her branches,
For they are not the Lord’s.
Have dealt very treacherously with Me,” says the Lord.
And said, b“It is not He.
cNeither will1 evil come upon us,
Nor shall we see sword or famine.
“Because you speak this word,
aBehold, I will make My words in your mouth fire,
And this people wood,
And it shall devour them.
O house of Israel,” says the Lord.
“It is a mighty nation,
It is an ancient nation,
A nation whose language you do not know,
Nor can you understand what they say.

Jeremiah 5:12
They have belied the Lord - kichashu . They have denied or disavowed the Lord.
It is not he - lo hu , he is not; there is no such being; therefore this evil shall not come upon us. On their premises, this conclusion was just. There is no judge; therefore there shall be no judgment. Thus they denied the Lord. They were atheists at heart.
