^(F1)(C1)Oh that I had in the desert A travelers' lodging place; So that I might leave my people And go away from them! For all of them are ^(C2)adulterers, An assembly of ^(C3)treacherous people.

"They ^(C1)bend their tongues like their bows; Lies and not truth prevail in the land; For they ^(C2)proceed from evil to evil, And they ^(C3)do not know Me," declares the LORD.

"Let everyone ^(C1)be on guard against his neighbor, And ^(C2)do not trust any brother; Because every ^(C3)brother utterly ^(F1)betrays, And every neighbor ^(C4)goes about as a slanderer.

-"Everyone ^(C1)deceives his neighbor And does not speak the truth. They have taught their tongue to speak lies; They ^(C2)weary themselves committing wrongdoing.

-"Your ^(C1)dwelling is in the midst of deceit; Through deceit they ^(C2)refuse to know Me," declares the LORD.
