They do not pay any attention to me.Be on guard against your friends. Do not trust the members of your own family. Every one of them cheats. Every friend tells lies.One friend cheats another. No one tells the truth. They have taught their tongues how to lie. They wear themselves out sinning.Jeremiah, you live among people who tell lies. When they lie, they refuse to pay any attention to me,” announces the Lord.

Psalms 36:1-4
I have a message from God in my heart. It is about the evil ways of anyone who sins. They don’t have any respect for God.They praise themselves so much that they can’t see their sin or hate it.Their mouths speak words that are evil and false. They do not act wisely or do what is good.Even as they lie in bed they make evil plans. They commit themselves to a sinful way of life. They never say no to what is wrong.

They don’t obey their parents.They do not understand. They can’t be trusted. They are not loving and kind.
