5 (6) “You inhabit a world of deceit;
deceitfully they refuse to know me,”
says Adonai.
6 (7) “Therefore,” says Adonai-Tzva’ot,
“I will refine them and test them.

7 (8) Their tongues are sharpened arrows;

they say nice words to their neighbors,
while inwardly plotting against them.

6 You[a] live in the midst of deception;(D)

declares the Lord.
7 Therefore this is what the Lord Almighty says:
