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.

    justice and righteousness(H) on earth,
    for in these I delight,”
