Jeremiah 9:4-6

New International Reader's Version

⁴ Be on guard against your friends.
    Do not trust the members of your own family.
Every one of them cheats.
    Every friend tells lies.
⁵ One friend cheats another.
    No one tells the truth.
They have taught their tongues how to lie.
    They wear themselves out sinning.
⁶ Jeremiah, you live among people who tell lies.
    When they lie, they refuse to pay any attention to me,”
    announces the Lord.
