Jeremiah 9:22-24

International Children’s Bible

‘The dead bodies of men will lie
    in the open field like dung.
They will lie on the ground like grain a farmer has cut.
    But there will be no one to gather them.’”

“Wise men must not brag about their wisdom.
    Strong men must not brag about their strength.
    Rich men must not brag about their money.
²⁴ But if someone wants to brag, let him brag about this:
    Let him brag that he understands and knows me.
Let him brag that I am the Lord.
    Let him brag that I am kind and fair.
    Let him brag that I do things that are right on earth.
This kind of bragging pleases me,” says the Lord.
