Jeremiah 5:8 ASV

⁶  Wherefore a lion out of the forest shall slay them, a wolf of the evenings shall destroy them, a leopard shall watch against their cities; every one that goeth out thence shall be torn in pieces; because their transgressions are many, 'and' their backslidings are increased.

⁷  How can I pardon thee? thy children have forsaken me, and sworn by them that are no gods: when I had fed them to the full, they committed adultery, and assembled themselves in troops at the harlots' houses.

⁸  They were as fed horses roaming at large; every one neighed after his neighbor's wife.

⁹  Shall I not visit for these things? saith Jehovah; and shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

¹⁰  Go ye up upon her walls, and destroy; but make not a full end: take away her branches; for they are not Jehovah's.
