Jeremiah 5:8-10
Contemporary English Version
8 You are no better than animals,
and you always want sex
with someone else's wife.
9 Why shouldn't I punish
the people of Judah?
10 I will tell their enemies,
“Go through my vineyard.
Don't destroy the vines,
but cut off the branches,
because they are the people
who don't belong to me.”
Jeremiah 5:8-10

each neighing for another man’s wife.(A)

declares the Lord.

on such a nation as this?

but do not destroy them completely.(D)
Strip off her branches,
for these people do not belong to the Lord.
