Jeremiah 4:22

Septuagint · public domain
Thomson 1808
(J) Because the rulers of My people did not know Me, they are foolish children and devoid of understanding. They are wise in doing evil; but to do good they have no knowledge.
Brenton 1851
For the princes of my people have not known me, they are foolish and unwise children: they are wise to do evil, but how to do good they have not known.
Greek · Brenton
Διότι οἱ ἡγούμενοι τοῦ λαοῦ μου ἐμὲ οὐκ ᾔδεισαν· υἱοὶ ἄφρονές εἰσι καὶ οὐ συνετοὶ, σοφοί εἰσι τοῦ κακοποιῆσαι, τὸ δὲ καλῶς ποιῆσαι οὐκ ἐπέγνωσαν.
