Jeremiah 5:8-10

New Catholic Bible

⁸ They are well-fed and lusty stallions,
    each one neighing for his neighbor’s wife.
⁹ Shall I not punish them for these things?
    asks the Lord.
Shall I not take vengeance on a nation such as this?
¹⁰ Ascend to her vineyards and ravage them
    but do not totally destroy them.
Strip off her branches,
    for these people no longer belong to the Lord.
