Jeremiah 5:7 - 5:9


7
“Why should I pardon you?
Your sons have forsaken Me
And sworn by those who are not gods.
I had satisfied them to the full,
Then they committed adultery
And trooped to the harlot’s house.
8
They were well‑fed lusty horses,
Each one neighing after his neighbor’s wife.
9
Shall I not punish these people,” declares Yahweh,
“And on a nation such as this
Shall I not avenge Myself?
