Jeremiah 9:4-6

International Standard Version

⁴ “Beware of your neighbors, and don’t trust
    any of your relatives.
For all of your relatives act deceitfully,
    and every friend goes around as a slanderer.
⁵ People deceive their friends,
    and they don’t tell the truth.
They have taught their tongues to tell lies.
    They exhaust themselves practicing evil.^[a]
6 You yourself live in the midst of deception,
    and because they are deceived they do not know me,”
        declares the Lord.
