Jeremiah 8:8-10

International Children’s Bible

⁸ “‘You keep saying, “We are wise.
    This is because we have the teachings of the Lord.”
But actually, those who copy the Scriptures
    have written lies with their pens.
⁹ These wise men refused to listen to the word of the Lord.
    So they are not really wise at all.
They will be ashamed.
    They will be shocked and trapped.
¹⁰ So I will give their wives to other men.
    I will give their fields to new owners.
Everyone, from the least important to the greatest,
    is greedy for money.
Even the prophets and priests
    all tell lies.
