Jeremiah 6:27-30
Legacy Standard Bible
27 “I have (A)made you a tester of metals and [a]an assayer among My people,
That you may know and test their way.”
28 All of them are rebelliously stubborn,
(B)Going about as a slanderer.
They are (C)bronze and iron;
They, all of them, are corrupt.
29 The bellows blow fiercely;
The lead [b]is consumed by the fire;
In vain the refining goes on,
But the (D)evil ones are not [c]separated.
30 (E)They call them rejected silver
Because (F)Yahweh has rejected them.

New International Version
27 “I have made you a tester(A) of metals
and my people the ore,
that you may observe
and test their ways.
28 They are all hardened rebels,(B)
going about to slander.(C)
They are bronze and iron;(D)
they all act corruptly.
29 The bellows blow fiercely
to burn away the lead with fire,
but the refining(E) goes on in vain;
the wicked are not purged out.
30 They are called rejected silver,(F)
because the Lord has rejected them.”(G)
