Jeremiah 8:11

Punishment For Judah's Leaders

¹⁰ Therefore, I will give their wives to other men,
their fields to new occupants,
for from the least to the greatest,
everyone is making profit dishonestly.
From prophet to priest,
everyone deals falsely.
¹¹ They have treated superficially the brokenness
of My dear people,
claiming, ‘Peace, peace,’
when there is no peace.
¹² Were they ashamed when they acted so abhorrently?
They weren’t at all ashamed.
They can no longer feel humiliation.
Therefore, they will fall among the fallen.
When I punish them, they will collapse,”
says the Lord.
