JEREMIAH 5:6-9 
WHEREFORE
A LION OUT OF THE FOREST
SHALL SLAY THEM,
AND
A WOLF OF THE EVENINGS
SHALL SPOIL THEM,
A LEOPARD SHALL WATCH OVER
THEIR CITIES:
EVERY ONE THAT GOETH
OUT THENCE SHALL
BE TORN IN PIECES:
BECAUSE THEIR
TRANSGRESSIONS ARE MANY,
AND
THEIR BACKSLIDINGS
ARE INCREASED.
HOW SHALL I PARDON
THEE FOR THIS?
THY CHILDREN HAVE FORSAKEN ME,
AND
SWORN BY THEM THAT
ARE NO GODS:
WHEN I HAD FED
THEM TO THE FULL,
THEY THEN
COMMITTED ADULTERY,
AND ASSEMBLED
THEMSELVES BY TROOPS
IN THE HARLOTS' HOUSES.
THEY WERE AS FED HORSES
IN THE MORNING:
EVERY ONE NEIGHED AFTER HIS
NEIGHBOUR'S WIFE.
SHALL I NOT VISIT
FOR THESE THINGS?
SAITH THE LORD:
AND
SHALL NOT MY SOUL
BE AVENGED ON SUCH A NATION AS THIS?
