Jeremiah 5:10-12

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁰ “Go along the rows of Judah’s grapevines.
    Cut down the vines. (But don’t completely destroy them.)
    Cut off all their branches, because they don’t belong to the Lord.
¹¹ The family of Israel and the family of Judah
    have been unfaithful to me in every way.”
    This message is from the Lord.

¹² “Those people lied about the Lord.
    They said, ‘He will not do anything to us.
Nothing bad will happen to us.
    We will never see an army attack us.
    We will never starve.’
