23 This is what the Lord says:
“Don’t let the wise boast in their wisdom,
or the powerful boast in their power,
or the rich boast in their riches.
24 But those who wish to boast
should boast in this alone:
that they truly know me and understand that I am the Lord
who demonstrates unfailing love
and who brings justice and righteousness to the earth,
and that I delight in these things.
I, the Lord, have spoken!

that they have the understanding to know(E) me,
that I am the Lord,(F) who exercises kindness,(G)
justice and righteousness(H) on earth,
for in these I delight,”
declares the Lord.
