Jeremiah 9:2
New American Standard Bible
2 [a](A)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 (B)adulterers,
An assembly of (C)treacherous people.

Hosea 4:2-3
New American Standard Bible
2 There is (A)oath-taking, (B)[a]denial, (C)murder, (D)stealing, and (E)adultery.
They employ violence, so that (F)bloodshed [b]follows bloodshed.
3 Therefore the land (G)mourns,
And everyone who lives in it languishes
Along with the animals of the field and the birds of the sky,
And even the fish of the sea [c]disappear.
