Jeremiah 5:8-10

Revised Standard Version

⁸They were well-fed lusty stallions,
    each neighing for his neighbor’s wife.
⁹Shall I not punish them for these things?
                says the Lord;
    and shall I not avenge myself
    on a nation such as this?

¹⁰“Go up through her vine-rows and destroy,
but make not a full end;
strip away her branches,
for they are not the Lord’s.
