Jeremiah 8:7-9
Legacy Standard Bible
7 Even the stork in the sky
(A)Knows her seasons;
And the (B)turtledove and the swift and the crane
Keep the time of their [a]migration;
But (C)My people do not know
The legal judgment of Yahweh.
8 “(D)How can you say, ‘We are wise,
And the law of Yahweh is with us’?
But behold, the lying pen of the scribes
Has made it into a lie.
9 The wise men are (E)put to shame;
They are dismayed and captured;
Behold, they have (F)rejected the word of Yahweh,
And what kind of wisdom do they have?
