Jeremiah 9:1-5

Jeremiah 9:1-5

[1] Oh that  my head  were waters,  and mine eyes  a fountain  of tears,  that I might weep  day  and night  for the slain  of the daughter  of my people!  [2] Oh that  I had in the wilderness  a lodging place  of wayfaring men;  that I might leave  my people,  from them! for they be all adulterers,  an assembly  of treacherous men.  [3] And they bend  their tongues  like their bow  for lies:  but they are not valiant  for the truth  upon the earth;  for they proceed  from evil  and they know  not me, saith  the LORD.  [4] Take ye heed  every one  of his neighbour,  and trust  ye not in any brother:  will utterly  and every neighbour  will walk  with slanders.  [5] And they will deceive  every one  his neighbour,  and will not speak  the truth:  they have taught  their tongue  to speak  lies,  and weary  themselves to commit iniquity.
