World English Bible
Jeremiah 9:7-9
World English Bible
7 Therefore Yahweh of Armies says,
“Behold, I will melt them and test them;
for how should I deal with the daughter of my people?
8 Their tongue is a deadly arrow.
It speaks deceit.
One speaks peaceably to his neighbor with his mouth,
but in his heart, he waits to ambush him.
9 Shouldn’t I punish them for these things?” says Yahweh.
“Shouldn’t my soul be avenged on a nation such as this?

New International Version
7 Therefore this is what the Lord Almighty says:
“See, I will refine(A) and test(B) them,
for what else can I do
because of the sin of my people?
8 Their tongue(C) is a deadly arrow;
it speaks deceitfully.
With their mouths they all speak cordially to their neighbors,(D)
but in their hearts they set traps(E) for them.(F)
9 Should I not punish them for this?”
declares the Lord.
“Should I not avenge(G) myself
on such a nation as this?”
