@ 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
!
strkjv@Jeremiah:9:2
@ Oh
that
I had in the
wilderness
a lodging
place
of wayfaring
men
; that I might
leave
my
people
, and
go
from them! for they be all
adulterers
, an
assembly
of treacherous
men
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:9:3
@ 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
to
evil
, and they
know
not me,
saith
the
LORD
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:9:4
@ Take ye
heed
every
one
of his
neighbour
, and
trust
ye not in any
brother
: for every
brother
will
utterly
supplant
, and every
neighbour
will
walk
with
slanders
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:9:5
@ 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
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:9:6
@ Thine
habitation
is in the
midst
of
deceit
; through
deceit
they
refuse
to
know
me,
saith
the
LORD
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:9:7
@ Therefore thus
saith
the
LORD
of
hosts
, Behold, I will
melt
them, and
try
them; for how shall I
do
for
the
daughter
of my
people
?
strkjv@Jeremiah:9:8
@ Their
tongue
is as an
arrow
shot
out
; it
speaketh
deceit
: one
speaketh
peaceably
to his
neighbour
with his
mouth
, but in
heart
he
layeth
his
wait
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:9:9
@ Shall I not
visit
them for these things?
saith
the
LORD
: shall not my
soul
be
avenged
on such a
nation
as this?
strkjv@Jeremiah:9:10
@ For the
mountains
will I take
up
a
weeping
and
wailing
, and for the
habitations
of the
wilderness
a
lamentation
, because they are burned
up
, so that
none
can
pass
through them; neither can men
hear
the
voice
of the
cattle
; both the
fowl
of the
heavens
and the
beast
are
fled
; they are
gone

@ And I will
make
Jerusalem
heaps

dragons

Judah
desolate
, without an
inhabitant

@ Who is the
wise
man

understand
this? and who is he to whom the
mouth

LORD
hath
spoken

declare
it, for what the
land
perisheth
and is burned
up
like a
wilderness
, that none passeth
through
?
strkjv@Jeremiah:9:13
@ And the
LORD
saith
, Because they have
forsaken
my
law
which I
set
before
them, and have not
obeyed
my
voice

walked
therein;

walked
after

Baalim

saith
the

of
hosts
, the
God
of
Israel
; Behold, I will
feed
them, even this
people

wormwood
, and give them
water
of
gall
to
drink

strkjv@Jeremiah:9:16
@ I will
scatter
them also among the
heathen
, whom neither they nor their
fathers
have
known
: and I will
send
a
sword
after
them, till I have
consumed
them.

@ Thus
saith

LORD
of

Consider
ye, and
call
for the mourning
women

send
for
cunning
women, that they may
come
:

@ And let them make
haste

up
a
wailing
for us, that our

gush
out

heard
out of
Zion

spoiled

greatly
confounded

wailing

lamentation

up
