13 “For (A)from the least of them even to the greatest of them,
Everyone is (B)greedy for gain,
And from the prophet even to the priest
Everyone [a]deals falsely.
14 “They have (C)healed the brokenness of My people superficially,
Saying, ‘Peace, peace,’
But there is no peace.
15 “Were they (D)ashamed because of the abomination they have done?
They were not even ashamed at all;
They did not even know how to blush.
Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;
At the time that I punish them,
They shall be cast down,” says the Lord.

  1. Jeremiah 6:13 Or makes lies

13 “From the least to the greatest,
    all(A) are greedy for gain;(B)
prophets and priests alike,
    all practice deceit.(C)
14 They dress the wound of my people
    as though it were not serious.
‘Peace, peace,’ they say,
    when there is no peace.(D)
15 Are they ashamed of their detestable conduct?
    No, they have no shame at all;
    they do not even know how to blush.(E)
So they will fall among the fallen;
    they will be brought down when I punish(F) them,”
says the Lord.
