Jeremiah 5:10

6Therefore a lion out of the forest will kill them. A wolf of the evenings will destroy them. A leopard will watch against their cities. Everyone who goes out there will be torn in pieces, because their transgressions are many and their backsliding has increased.

7“How can I pardon you? Your children have forsaken me, and sworn by what are no gods. When I had fed them to the full, they committed adultery, and assembled themselves in troops at the prostitutes’ houses.

8They were as fed horses roaming at large. Everyone neighed after his neighbor’s wife.

9Shouldn’t I punish them for these things?” says the LORD. “Shouldn’t my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

10“Go up on her walls, and destroy, but don’t make a full end. Take away her branches, for they are not the LORD’s.

11For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have dealt very treacherously against me,” says the LORD.

12They have denied the LORD, and said, “It is not he. Evil won’t come on us. We won’t see sword or famine.

13The prophets will become wind, and the word is not in them. Thus it will be done to them.”

14Therefore the LORD, the God of Armies says, “Because you speak this word, behold, I will make my words in your mouth fire, and this people wood, and it will devour them.
