Jeremiah 9:22-24
Evangelical Heritage Version
22 This is what the Lord says.
Dead bodies will fall
like manure on the ground,
like freshly cut grain after the reaper,
with no one to gather it.
23 This is what the Lord says.
The wise man should not boast in his wisdom.
The strong man should not boast in his strength,
nor the rich man in his riches.
24 Instead, let those who boast boast about this:
that they have understanding, and that they know me.
They know that I am the Lord,
who shows mercy, justice, and righteousness on earth,
for I delight in these things, declares the Lord.
Jeremiah 9:22-24
New International Version
22 Say, “This is what the Lord declares:
“‘Dead bodies will lie
like dung(A) on the open field,
like cut grain behind the reaper,
with no one to gather them.’”
23 This is what the Lord says:
“Let not the wise boast of their wisdom(B)
or the strong boast of their strength(C)
or the rich boast of their riches,(D)
24 but let the one who boasts boast(E) about this:
that they have the understanding to know(F) me,
that I am the Lord,(G) who exercises kindness,(H)
justice and righteousness(I) on earth,
for in these I delight,”
declares the Lord.
