I need to use python 3.8. I installed it using the following command:

pyenv install 3.8.1

Now the output of pyenv versions is:

  system
* 3.8.1 (set by /Users/username/.pyenv/version)

Output of python -V:

Python 2.7.16

Why are they different?

pyenv python-3.8 python-2.7 python

Try eval "$(pyenv init --path)". That worked for me.
