God Promises Judgment and Refining

Jeremiah 9:7-11
7
Therefore thus says the LORD of Hosts, Behold, I will melt them, and try them; for how should I deal with the daughter of my people?
8
Their tongue is a deadly arrow; it speaks deceit: one speaks peaceably to his neighbor with his mouth, but in his heart he lays wait for him.
9
Shall I not visit them for these things? says the LORD; shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
10
For the mountains will I take up a weeping and wailing, and for the pastures of the wilderness a lamentation, because they are burned up, so that no one passes through; neither can men hear the voice of the livestock; both the birds of the sky and the animals are fled, they are gone.
11
I will make Jerusalem heaps, a dwelling place of jackals; and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.
