Jeremiah 9:4-6

The Voice

⁴     Let everyone be careful of his neighbor,
        and think twice before he trusts his brothers;
    For every brother is ready to cheat and deceive;
        every neighbor is prepared to lie when it suits him.
⁵     In this land of liars, friends have no misgivings about deceiving one another;
        no one even thinks to tell the truth.
    They’ve trained their tongues to utter lies;
        they wear themselves out with all their sinning.
⁶     Jeremiah, you live in a place where deception is assumed;
        as their lies pile up, they refuse to acknowledge Me.
