23 Thus says the Lord:

(A)“Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom,
Let not the mighty man glory in his (B)might,
Nor let the rich man glory in his riches;
24 But (C)let him who glories glory in this,
That he understands and knows Me,
That I am the Lord, exercising lovingkindness, [a]judgment, and righteousness in the earth.
(D)For in these I delight,” says the Lord.

25 “Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord, “that (E)I will punish all who are circumcised with the uncircumcised— 26 Egypt, Judah, Edom, the people of Ammon, Moab, and all who are in the (F)farthest corners, who dwell in the wilderness. For all these nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel are (G)uncircumcised in the heart.”
