Jeremiah 8:10-12
New King James Version
10 Therefore (A)I will give their wives to others,
And their fields to those who will inherit them;
Because from the least even to the greatest
Everyone is given to (B)covetousness;
From the prophet even to the priest
Everyone deals falsely.
11 For they have (C)healed the hurt of the daughter of My people [a]slightly,
Saying, (D)‘Peace, peace!’
When there is no peace.
12 Were they (E)ashamed when they had committed abomination?
No! They were not at all ashamed,
Nor did they know how to blush.
Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;
In the time of their punishment
They shall be cast down,” says the Lord.

Jeremiah 8:10-12
Authorized (King James) Version
10 Therefore will I give their wives unto others,
and their fields to them that shall inherit them:
for every one from the least even unto the greatest is given to covetousness,
from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely.
11 For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly,
saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
12 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination?
nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush:
therefore shall they fall among them that fall:
in the time of their visitation they shall be cast down, saith the Lord.
Jeremiah 8:10-12
New International Version
10 Therefore I will give their wives to other men
and their fields to new owners.(A)
From the least to the greatest,
all are greedy for gain;(B)
prophets(C) and priests alike,
all practice deceit.(D)
11 They dress the wound of my people
as though it were not serious.
“Peace, peace,” they say,
when there is no peace.(E)
12 Are they ashamed of their detestable conduct?
No, they have no shame(F) at all;
they do not even know how to blush.
So they will fall among the fallen;
they will be brought down when they are punished,(G)
says the Lord.(H)
