    Oh, that my head were waters,
    And my eyes a fountain of tears,
    That I might weep day and night
    For the slain of the daughter of my people!
    Oh, that I had in the wilderness
    A lodging place for travelers;
    That I might leave my people,
    And go from them!
    For they are all adulterers,
    An assembly of treacherous men.
    “ And like their bow they have bent their tongues for lies.
    They are not valiant for the truth on the earth.
    For they proceed from evil to evil,
    And they do not know Me,” says the LORD.
    “ Everyone take heed to his neighbor,
    And do not trust any brother;
    For every brother will utterly supplant,
    And every neighbor will walk with slanderers.
    Everyone will deceive his neighbor,
    And will not speak the truth;
    They have taught their tongue to speak lies;
    They weary themselves to commit iniquity.
