Jeremiah 8:8-9
Authorized (King James) Version
8 How do ye say, We are wise,
and the law of the Lord is with us?
Lo, certainly in vain made he it;
the pen of the scribes is in vain.
9 The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken:
lo, they have rejected the word of the Lord;
and what wisdom is in them?
