Jeremiah

Warnings about Jerusalem's destruction due to unfaithfulness, with promises of a new covenant.

Chapter 5

KJV - Jeremiah 5:27

As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich.

Just like a cage holds many birds, their homes are filled with lies. That's why they have grown powerful and wealthy.
