New King James Version
Jeremiah 9:8-10
New King James Version
8 Their tongue is an arrow shot out;
It speaks (A)deceit;
One speaks (B)peaceably to his neighbor with his mouth,
But [a]in his heart he [b]lies in wait.
9 (C)Shall I not punish them for these things?” says the Lord.
“Shall I not avenge Myself on such a nation as this?”
10 I will take up a weeping and wailing for the mountains,
And (D)for the [c]dwelling places of the wilderness a lamentation,
Because they are burned up,
So that no one can pass through;
Nor can men hear the voice of the cattle.
(E)Both the birds of the heavens and the beasts have fled;
They are gone.
