Jeremiah 9:23-24
New International Version
23 This is what the Lord says:
“Let not the wise boast of their wisdom(A)
or the strong boast of their strength(B)
or the rich boast of their riches,(C)
24 but let the one who boasts boast(D) about this:
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.
Jeremiah 9:23-24
Common English Bible
23 The Lord proclaims:
the learned should not boast of their knowledge,
nor warriors boast of their might,
nor the rich boast of their wealth.
24 No, those who boast should boast in this:
that they understand and know me.
I am the Lord who acts with kindness,
justice, and righteousness in the world,
and I delight in these things,
declares the Lord.
