Jeremiah 9:7-9

Darby Translation

⁷ Therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Behold, I will melt them, and try them; for how else could I do for the daughter of my people?

⁸ Their tongue is a murderous arrow; it speaketh deceit. [A man] speaketh peaceably to his neighbour with his mouth, but in his heart he layeth his ambush.

⁹ Shall I not visit them for these [things]? saith Jehovah; shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
