Jeremiah 5:6-8

Legacy Standard Bible

⁶ Therefore ^(A)a lion from the forest will strike them down;
A ^(B)wolf of the deserts will devastate them;
A ^(C)leopard is watching their cities.
Everyone who goes out of them will be torn in pieces
Because their ^(D)transgressions are many;
Their acts of faithlessness are mighty.

⁷ “Why should I pardon you?
Your sons have forsaken Me
And ^(E)sworn by those who are ^(F)not gods.
I had satisfied them to the full,
Then they ^(G)committed adultery
And trooped to the harlot’s house.
⁸ They were well-fed lusty horses,
Each one neighing after his ^(H)neighbor’s wife.
