Jeremiah 8:10-12
World English Bible
10 Therefore I will give their wives to others
and their fields to those who will possess them.
For everyone from the least even to the greatest is given to covetousness;
from the prophet even to the priest everyone deals falsely.
11 They have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying,
“Peace, peace,” when there is no peace.
12 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination?
No, they were not at all ashamed.
They couldn’t blush.
Therefore they will fall among those who fall.
In the time of their visitation they will be cast down, says Yahweh.
Jeremiah 8:10-12
New King James Version
10 Therefore (A)I will give their wives to others,
And their fields to those who will inherit them;
Because from the least even to the greatest
Everyone is given to (B)covetousness;
From the prophet even to the priest
Everyone deals falsely.
11 For they have (C)healed the hurt of the daughter of My people [a]slightly,
Saying, (D)‘Peace, peace!’
When there is no peace.
12 Were they (E)ashamed when they had committed abomination?
No! They were not at all ashamed,
Nor did they know how to blush.
Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;
In the time of their punishment
They shall be cast down,” says the Lord.
