Jeremiah 8:8-10
New American Standard Bible
8 “(A)How can you say, ‘We are wise,
And the Law of the Lord is with us’?
But behold, the lying pen of the scribes
Has made it into a lie.
9 The wise men are (B)put to shame,
They are dismayed and caught;
Behold, they have (C)rejected the word of the Lord,
So what kind of wisdom do they have?
10 Therefore I will (D)give their wives to others,
Their fields to new owners;
Because from the least even to the greatest
Everyone is (E)greedy for gain;
From the prophet even to the priest,
Everyone practices deceit.
Jeremiah 8:8-10
New International Version
8 “‘How can you say, “We are wise,
for we have the law(A) of the Lord,”
when actually the lying pen of the scribes
has handled it falsely?
9 The wise(B) will be put to shame;
they will be dismayed(C) and trapped.(D)
Since they have rejected the word(E) of the Lord,
what kind of wisdom(F) do they have?
10 Therefore I will give their wives to other men
and their fields to new owners.(G)
From the least to the greatest,
all are greedy for gain;(H)
prophets(I) and priests alike,
all practice deceit.(J)
