Jeremiah 6:27-30
Authorized (King James) Version
27 I have set thee for a tower and a fortress among my people,
that thou mayest know and try their way.
28 They are all grievous revolters, walking with slanders:
they are brass and iron; they are all corrupters.
29 The bellows are burned, the lead is consumed of the fire;
the founder melteth in vain:
for the wicked are not plucked away.
30 Reprobate silver shall men call them,
because the Lord hath rejected them.
Jeremiah 6:27-30
American Standard Version
27 I have made thee a [a]trier and a fortress among my people; that thou mayest know and try their way. 28 They are all grievous revolters, going about with slanders; they are brass and iron: they all of them deal corruptly. 29 The bellows [b]blow fiercely; the lead is consumed of the fire: in vain do they go on refining; for the wicked are not plucked away. 30 Refuse silver shall men call them, because Jehovah hath rejected them.
