Jeremiah 8:10-12

International Children’s Bible

¹⁰ So I will give their wives to other men.
    I will give their fields to new owners.
Everyone, from the least important to the greatest,
    is greedy for money.
Even the prophets and priests
    all tell lies.
¹¹ They try to heal my people’s serious injuries
    as if they were small wounds.
They say, “It’s all right, it’s all right!”
    But really, it is not all right.
¹² They should be ashamed of the terrible way they act.
    But they are not ashamed at all.
    They don’t even know how to blush about their sins.
So they will fall, along with everyone else.
    They will be thrown to the ground when I punish them, says the Lord.
