Jeremiah 9:22-24

Jeremiah 9:22-24
The Voice
22 Tell everyone what the Eternal has said:
“The dead bodies of men will fall like dung on the open field.
Corpses will lie on the ground like grain cut in the harvest;
but on this day, there will be no one to gather and bury the dead.”
Eternal One: 23 Let not the wise boast in their wisdom, nor the mighty in their strength, nor the rich in their wealth. 24 Whoever boasts must boast in this: that he understands and knows Me.[a] Indeed, I am the Eternal One who acts faithfully and exercises justice and righteousness on earth. These are the things that delight Me.

Jeremiah 9:22-24
New International Version
22 Say, “This is what the Lord declares:
“‘Dead bodies will lie
like dung(A) on the open field,
like cut grain behind the reaper,
with no one to gather them.’”
23 This is what the Lord says:
“Let not the wise boast of their wisdom(B)
or the strong boast of their strength(C)
or the rich boast of their riches,(D)
24 but let the one who boasts boast(E) about this:
that they have the understanding to know(F) me,
that I am the Lord,(G) who exercises kindness,(H)
justice and righteousness(I) on earth,
for in these I delight,”
declares the Lord.
