Jeremiah 9:3-5
King James Version
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.
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.
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.

3 “And like their bow (A)they have bent their tongues for lies.
They are not valiant for the truth on the earth.
For they proceed from (B)evil to evil,
And they (C)do not know Me,” says the Lord.

And do not trust any brother;
For every brother will utterly supplant,
And every neighbor will (E)walk with slanderers.
5 Everyone will (F)deceive his neighbor,
And will not speak the truth;
They have taught their tongue to speak lies;
They weary themselves to commit iniquity.
