⁸ “‘How can you say, “We are wise,
    for we have the law^(A) of the Lord,”
when actually the lying pen of the scribes
    has handled it falsely?
⁹ The wise^(B) will be put to shame;
    they will be dismayed^(C) and trapped.^(D)
Since they have rejected the word^(E) of the Lord,
    what kind of wisdom^(F) do they have?
¹⁰ Therefore I will give their wives to other men
    and their fields to new owners.^(G)
From the least to the greatest,
    all are greedy for gain;^(H)
prophets^(I) and priests alike,
    all practice deceit.^(J)
