Jeremiah 9:23-24

New International Reader's Version

“Do not let wise people brag about how wise they are.
    Do not let strong people boast about how strong they are.
    Do not let rich people brag about how rich they are.
²⁴ But here is what the one who brags should boast about.
    They should brag that they have the understanding to know me.
I want them to know that I am the Lord.
    No matter what I do on earth, I am always kind, fair and right.
    And I take delight in this,”
    announces the Lord.
