The word of a tester of metals and a fortress among the people, and the rejected silver
백성 중에 살피는 자와 요새를 삼았다는 말씀과 내어버린 은
Jeremiah 6:27–30: “I have made you a tester of metals and a fortress among my people, that you may know and try their way. They are all grievous rebels, going around to slander. They are bronze and iron. All of them deal corruptly. The bellows blow fiercely. The lead is consumed in the fire. In vain they go on refining, for the wicked are not plucked away. Men will call them rejected silver, because the LORD has rejected them.” WEB carries no words naming who speaks, and neither edition names who “you” is. The Korean Revised Version opens 6:27 with 주께서 가라사대, the Lord said, and reads at 6:30 나 여호와가 그들을 버렸음이니라, in the LORD’s first person, where WEB reads “because the LORD has rejected them”.
