Jeremiah 5

NET

26 Indeed, there are wicked scoundrels among my people. They lie in wait like bird catchers hiding in ambush. They set deadly traps to catch people.


Darby

26 For among my people are found wicked [men]: they lay wait, as fowlers stoop down; they set a trap, they catch men.


KJV

26 For among my people are found wicked [men]: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men.
