• Jeremiah 5:6
    New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures

    •  6 That is why a lion of the forest attacks them,

      A wolf of the desert plains keeps ravaging them,

      A leopard lies awake at their cities.

      Everyone going out from them is torn to pieces.

      For their transgressions are many;

      Their acts of unfaithfulness are numerous.+
