Jeremiah 8:11 in Context — Jeremiah 8

9 Los sabios se avergonzaron, espantáronse y fueron presos: he aquí que aborrecieron la palabra de Jehová; ¿y qué sabiduría tienen?

10 Por tanto daré á otros sus mujeres, y sus heredades á quien las posea: porque desde el chico hasta el grande cada uno sigue la avaricia, desde el profeta hasta el sacerdote todos hacen engaño.

11 Y curaron el quebrantamiento de la hija de mi pueblo con liviandad, diciendo: Paz, paz; y no hay paz.

12 ¿Hanse avergonzado de haber hecho abominación? Por cierto no se han corrido de vergüenza, ni supieron avergonzarse; caerán por tanto entre los que cayeren, cuando los visitaré: caerán, dice Jehová.

13 Cortarélos de por junto, dice Jehová. No habrá uvas en la vid, ni higos en la higuera, y caeráse la hoja; y lo que les he dado pasará de ellos.
