¹⁷ “Let ^(A)the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.”

²³ Thus says the Lord: ^(A)“Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches, ²⁴ but ^(B)let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the Lord who practises steadfast love, justice, and righteousness in the earth. ^(C)For in these things I delight, declares the Lord.”
