Jeremiah 9:8-10
New International Version - UK
8 Their tongue is a deadly arrow;
it speaks deceitfully.
With their mouths they all speak cordially to their neighbours,
but in their hearts they set traps for them.
9 Should I not punish them for this?’
declares the Lord.
‘Should I not avenge myself
on such a nation as this?’
10 I will weep and wail for the mountains
and take up a lament concerning the wilderness grasslands.
They are desolate and untravelled,
and the lowing of cattle is not heard.
The birds have all fled
and the animals are gone.
