Jeremiah 10:8 in every translation
Leer en españolThe same verse in each translation we publish, grouped by language and by the tradition that made it. Numbering is matched for each text (for example, Psalms in the Septuagint).
Why does my Bible say something different?
- Jeremiah: a shorter book in a different order
The Greek Septuagint of Jeremiah is markedly shorter than the Hebrew text and arranges the book differently: the oracles against the nations come in the middle, after 25:13, not at the end. Hebrew fragments from Qumran show that a shorter Hebrew form of Jeremiah really existed. Many scholars think Jeremiah circulated in two editions.
