Jeremiah 6:29

New International Version

²⁹The bellows blow fiercely
to burn away the lead with fire,
but the refining^(A) goes on in vain;
the wicked are not purged out.

Jeremiah 6:29

King James Version

²⁹The bellows are burned, the lead is consumed of the fire; the founder melteth in vain: for the wicked are not plucked away.

²⁹The bellows blow fiercely,
The lead is consumed by the fire;
The smelter refines in vain,
For the wicked are not drawn off.

New International Version (NIV)
