Jeremiah 9:4-8

4Take ye heed everyH376 one of his neighbour, and trust ye notH3808 in anyH376 brother: for everyH376 brother will utterly supplant, and everyH376 neighbour will go aboutH1696 with slanders.

5And they will deceive every one his neighbour, and will notH3045 speak the truth: they have taughtH3045 their tongue to speak liesH4820; they weary themselves to commit iniquity.

6Thine habitation is in the midst of deceit; throughH3651 deceit they refuse to know meH6440, saith the LORDH3068.

7Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, I will melt them, and try them; for howH7965 elseH7453 should I do, because of the daughter of my peopleH1696?

8Their tongue is a deadlyH5315 arrow; it speaketh deceit: one speaketh peaceably to his neighbour with his mouthH5315, but in his heartH5315 he layeth wait for him.
