Jeremiah 6:13-15
New American Standard Bible
13 “For (A)from the least of them to the greatest of them,
Everyone is (B)greedy for gain,
And from the prophet to the priest
Everyone deals falsely.
14 They have (C)healed the brokenness of My people superficially,
Saying, ‘Peace, peace,’
But there is no peace.
15 Were they (D)ashamed because of the abomination they had done?
They were not ashamed at all,
Nor did they know even how to be ashamed.
Therefore they will fall among those who fall;
At the time that I punish them,
They will collapse,” says the Lord.
Jeremiah 6:13-15
New International Version
13 “From the least to the greatest,
all(A) are greedy for gain;(B)
prophets and priests alike,
all practice deceit.(C)
14 They dress the wound of my people
as though it were not serious.
‘Peace, peace,’ they say,
when there is no peace.(D)
15 Are they ashamed of their detestable conduct?
No, they have no shame at all;
they do not even know how to blush.(E)
So they will fall among the fallen;
they will be brought down when I punish(F) them,”
says the Lord.
Jeremiah 6:13-15
New King James Version
13 “Because from the least of them even to the greatest of them,
Everyone is given to (A)covetousness;
And from the prophet even to the (B)priest,
Everyone deals falsely.
14 They have also (C)healed the [a]hurt of My people [b]slightly,
(D)Saying, ‘Peace, peace!’
When there is no peace.
15 Were they (E)ashamed when they had committed abomination?
No! They were not at all ashamed;
Nor did they know how to blush.
Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;
At the time I punish them,
They shall be cast down,” says the Lord.

New American Standard Bible
15 Therefore this is what the Lord says concerning the prophets who are prophesying in My name, although it was not I who sent them—yet they keep saying: ‘There will be no sword or famine in this land’—(A)by sword and famine those prophets shall meet their end! 16 And the people to whom they are prophesying will be (B)thrown out into the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; and there will be no one to (C)bury them—neither them, nor their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters. For I will (D)pour out their own wickedness upon them.
