Jeremiah 8:8-9
New American Standard Bible
8 “(A)How can you say, ‘We are wise,
And the Law of the Lord 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 caught;
Behold, they have (C)rejected the word of the Lord,
So what kind of wisdom do they have?
Jeremiah 8:8-9
International Standard Version
8 How can you say, ‘We’re wise,
and the Law of the Lord is with us,’
when, in fact, the deceitful pen of the scribe has made it
into something that deceives.
9 The wise men will be put to shame.
They’ll be dismayed and taken captive.
Look, they have rejected the message from the Lord!
So what kind of wisdom do they have?
