Jeremiah 9:4 in Context — Jeremiah 9

2 Ah, se houvesse para mim no deserto uma hospedaria para caminhantes! Então eu deixaria o meu povo, e me afastaria deles; pois todos eles são adúlteros, são um bando de traiçoeiros.

3 Eles estendem suas línguas, como [se] lhes fossem arcos, para atirarem mentira; e se fortaleceram na terra, mas não por meio da verdade; porque se avançam de mal em mal, e não me conhecem, diz o SENHOR.

4 Guardai-vos cada um de seu amigo, nem em irmão algum tende confiança: porque todo irmão só faz enganar, e todo amigo anda com falsidades.

5 E cada um engana a seu amigo, e não falam a verdade; ensinaram sua língua a falar mentira, e agem perversamente até se cansarem.

6 Tua habitação é em meio ao engano; por meio do engano se negam a me conhecer,diz o SENHOR.
