Jeremiah 23:14-16
Legacy Standard Bible
14 Also among the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen an (A)appalling thing:
The committing of (B)adultery and walking in lying;
And they strengthen the hands of (C)evildoers,
So that no one has turned back from his evil.
All of them have become to Me like (D)Sodom,
And her inhabitants like Gomorrah.
15 Therefore thus says Yahweh of hosts concerning the prophets,
‘Behold, I am going to (E)feed them wormwood
And make them drink [a]poisoned water,
For from the prophets of Jerusalem
Pollution has gone forth into all the land.’”
16 Thus says Yahweh of hosts,
“(F)Do not listen to the words of the prophets who are prophesying to you.
They are (G)leading you into vanity;
They speak a (H)vision of their own heart,
Not (I)from the mouth of Yahweh.
