Jeremiah 6:28-30
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 6
28All of them are stubbornly rebellious, Going about as a slanderer; They are bronze and iron. They are, all of them, corrupt. 29The bellows blow fiercely, The lead is consumed by the fire; In vain the refining goes on, But the wicked are not separated. 30They call them rejected silver, Because the Lord has rejected them.King James Version

Chapter 6
28They are the worst kind of rebel, full of slander. They are as hard as bronze and iron, and they lead others into corruption. 29The bellows fiercely fan the flames to burn out the corruption. But it does not purify them, for the wickedness remains. 30I will label them ‘Rejected Silver,’ for I, the Lord, am discarding them.'English Standard Version
