Jeremiah 9:6-8
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
6 Oppression upon oppression, deceit[a] upon deceit!
They refuse to know me, says the Lord.
7 Therefore thus says the Lord of hosts:
I will now refine and test them,
for what else can I do with my sinful people?[b]
8 Their tongue is a deadly arrow;
it speaks deceit through the mouth.
They all speak friendly words to their neighbors,
but inwardly are planning to lay an ambush.
Footnotes
- Jeremiah 9:6 Cn: Heb Your dwelling in the midst of deceit
- Jeremiah 9:7 Or my poor people
