Jeremiah 5:6-9 Therefore has a lion out of the forest smitten them, and a wolf has destroyed them, even to their houses, and a leopard has watched against their cities. All that go forth from them shall be hunted, for they have multiplied their ungodliness, they have strengthened themselves in their backslidings.

CAB⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ Therefore has a lion out of the forest smitten them, and a wolf has destroyed them, even to their houses, and a leopard has watched against their cities. All that go forth from them shall be hunted, for they have multiplied their ungodliness, they have strengthened themselves in their backslidings. ⁷ In what way shall I forgive you for these things? Your sons have forsaken Me, and sworn by them that are not gods. And I fed them to the full, and they committed adultery, and lodged in harlots' houses. ⁸ They became as wanton horses — each one neighed after his neighbor's wife. ⁹ Shall I not punish them for these things? Says the Lord: and shall not My soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
