Jeremiah 8:8-9

Modern English Version

⁸ How do you say, “We are wise,
    and the law of the Lord is with us”?
Certainly the lying pen of the scribes
    has made it into a lie.
⁹ The wise men are ashamed;
    they are dismayed and caught.
Indeed, they have rejected the word of the Lord,
    and what kind of wisdom do they have?
