Jeremiah 9:5-7

Young's Literal Translation

⁵ And each at his friend they mock, And truth they do not speak, They taught their tongue to speak falsehood, To commit iniquity they have laboured.

⁶ thy dwelling [is] in the midst of deceit, Through deceit they refused to know Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.

⁷ Therefore, thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Lo, I am refining them, and have tried them, For how do I do because of the daughter of My people?
