Thoughts for troubled times - 11

Thus says the Lord:

"Let not the wise man gloryin his wisdom,

let not the mighty man glory in his might,

let not the rich man glory in his riches,

but let him who glories glory in this,

that he understands and knows me,

that I am the Lord who practises

steadfast love, justice, and righteousness

in the earth;

for in these things I delight,

says the Lord."

The Book of Jeremiah

9:23-24
