Jeremiah 8:10-12
New Living Translation
10 I will give their wives to others
and their farms to strangers.
From the least to the greatest,
their lives are ruled by greed.
Yes, even my prophets and priests are like that.
They are all frauds.
11 They offer superficial treatments
for my people’s mortal wound.
They give assurances of peace
when there is no peace.
12 Are they ashamed of these disgusting actions?
Not at all—they don’t even know how to blush!
Therefore, they will lie among the slaughtered.
They will be brought down when I punish them,
says the Lord.
Jeremiah 8:10-12
English Standard Version
10 (A)Therefore I will give their wives to others
and their fields to conquerors,
because from the least to the greatest
everyone (B)is greedy for unjust gain;
from prophet to priest,
everyone deals falsely.
11 They have healed (C)the wound of my people lightly,
saying, ‘Peace, peace,’
when there is no peace.
12 Were they ashamed when they committed abomination?
No, (D)they were not at all ashamed;
they did not know how to blush.
(E)Therefore they shall fall among the fallen;
when I punish them, they shall be overthrown,
says the Lord.
