Jeremiah 9:7-9
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
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?[a]
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.
9 Shall I not punish them for these things? says the Lord;
and shall I not bring retribution
on a nation such as this?
