New International Reader's Version

Jeremiah 6:28-30 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

28. All of them are used to disobeying me. They go around telling lies about others. They are like bronze mixed with iron. All of them do very sinful things.

29. The fire is made very hot so the lead will burn away. But it is impossible to make those people pure. Those who are evil are not removed.

30. They are like silver that is thrown away. That is because I have not accepted them."
