(A)The wise men are ashamed,
They are dismayed and taken.
Behold, they have rejected the word of the Lord;
So (B)what wisdom do they have?
10 Therefore (C)I will give their wives to others,
And their fields to those who will inherit them;
Because from the least even to the greatest
Everyone is given to (D)covetousness;
From the prophet even to the priest
Everyone deals falsely.
11 For they have (E)healed the hurt of the daughter of My people [a]slightly,
Saying, (F)‘Peace, peace!’
When there is no peace.
