Jeremiah 8:8-9
Legacy Standard Bible
8 “(A)How can you say, ‘We are wise,
And the law of Yahweh is with us’?
But behold, the lying pen of the scribes
Has made it into a lie.
9 The wise men are (B)put to shame;
They are dismayed and captured;
Behold, they have (C)rejected the word of Yahweh,
And what kind of wisdom do they have?
Jeremiah 8:8-9
American Standard Version
8 How do ye say, We are wise, and the law of Jehovah is with us? But, behold, the false pen of the scribes hath [a]wrought falsely. 9 The wise men are put to shame, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected the word of Jehovah; and what manner of wisdom is in them?
