Jeremiah 6
28 Ref All of them are turned away, going about with false stories; they are brass and iron: they are all workers of deceit.
29 Ref The blower is blowing strongly, the lead is burned away in the fire: they go on heating the metal to no purpose, for the evil-doers are not taken away.
30 Ref They will be named waste silver, because the Lord has given them up.
