Jeremiah 5:10-12

New International Reader's Version

¹⁰ “Armies of Babylon, go through their vineyards and destroy them.
    But do not destroy them completely.
Strip off their branches.
    These people do not belong to me.
¹¹ The people of Israel and the people of Judah
    have not been faithful to me at all,”
    announces the Lord.

¹² They have told lies about the Lord.
    They said, “He won’t do anything!
No harm will come to us.
    We will never see war or be hungry.
