"Shall I not visit for these things? saith the Lord: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?"
— Jeremiah 5:29, King James Version
“Shall I not visit for these things? saith Jehovah; shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this? ”
“"Shall I not punish for these things?" says Yahweh. "Shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?”

“Shall I not visit for these things, saith the Lord? or shall not my soul take revenge on such a nation?”
“Am I not to give punishment for these things? says the Lord: will not my soul take payment from such a nation as this?”
“Shall I not visit for these things? saith the Lord: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?”
For among my people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men.
As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich.
They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge.
Shall I not visit for these things? saith the Lord: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land;
The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?
