Jeremiah 8:8-9

^{Tools
8}

“How can you claim, ‘We are wise;
the law of the Lord is with us’?
In fact, the lying pen of scribes^(A)
has produced falsehood.

The wise will be put to shame;
they will be dismayed and snared.
They have rejected the word of the Lord,
so what wisdom do they really have?
