# This is Yahweh's declaration
See how you translated these words in Jeremiah 1:8.
# They bend their tongues like their bows for lies
"Their tongues are like bows which they prepare to shoot out lies" or "Their lies are like arrows that they shoot with their tongues"
# They
Here the word "They" refers to God's people.
# and it is not because of any faithfulness of theirs that they grow strong on the earth
"and they grow strong on the earth, but it is not because they are faithful"
# For they go from one wicked act to another
"For they keep doing evil things"
