MLV(i)
4 You* take heed each one of his neighbor and trust you* not in any brother, for every brother will utterly supplant and every neighbor will go about with gossipers.
5 And they will deceive each one his neighbor and will not speak the truth. They have taught their tongue to speak lies. They inwardly set up an ambush.
6 Your habitation is in the midst of deceit. Through deceit they refuse to know me, says Jehovah.
7 Therefore Jehovah of hosts says thus: Behold, I will melt them and try them, for how else should I do, because of the daughter of my people? 8 Their tongue is a deadly arrow; it speaks deceit. He speaks peaceably to his neighbor with his mouth, but in his heart he lies wait for him.
9 Shall I not visit them for these things? says Jehovah. Shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
