Jeremiah 5:12
They have belied the LORD, and said, It is not he; neither shall evil come upon us; neither shall we see sword nor famine:
KJV
Negaverunt Dominum, et dixerunt : Non est ipse : neque veniet super nos malum : gladium et famem non videbimus.
Vulgate
ἐψεύσατο τῷ κυρίῳ ἑαυτῶν, καὶ εἶπαν Οὐκ ἔστιν ταῦτα· οὐχ ἥξει ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς κακά, καὶ μάχαιραν καὶ λιμὸν οὐκ ὀψόμεθα·
LXX
They have denied Jehovah, and said, It is not he; neither shall evil come upon us; neither shall we see sword nor famine:
