Jeremiah 48:30

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Interconfessional

I myself know his insolence, says the Lord; his boasts are false, his deeds are false.

See the chapter Copy

The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; he frustrates the plans of the peoples.

For not from the east or from the west and not from the wilderness comes lifting up;

No wisdom, no understanding, no counsel, can avail against the Lord.

We have heard of the pride of Moab —how proud he is!— of his arrogance, his pride, and his insolence; his boasts are false.

A sword against the diviners, so that they may become fools! A sword against her warriors, so that they may be destroyed!
