Jeremiah 23:16
Thus
saith
the
LORD
of
hosts,
Hearken
not unto the
words
of the
prophets
that
prophesy
unto you: they make you
vain:
they
speak
a
vision
of their own
heart,
and not out of the
mouth
of the
LORD.
17
They
say
still
unto them that
despise
me, The
LORD
hath
said,
Ye shall have
peace;
and they
say
unto every one that
walketh
after the
imagination
of his own
heart,
No
evil
shall
come
upon you.
18
For who hath
stood
in the
counsel
of the
LORD,
and hath
perceived
and
heard
his
word?
who hath
marked
his
word,
and
heard
it?
19
Behold, a
whirlwind
of the
LORD
is gone
forth
in
fury,
even a
grievous
whirlwind:
it shall fall
grievously
upon the
head
of the
wicked.
20
The
anger
of the
LORD
shall not
return,
until he have
executed,
and till he have
performed
the
thoughts
of his
heart:
in the
latter
days
ye shall
consider
it
perfectly.
21
I have not
sent
these
prophets,
yet they
ran:
I have not
spoken
to them, yet they
prophesied.
22
But if they had
stood
in my
counsel,
and had caused my
people
to
hear
my
words,
then they should have
turned
them from their
evil
way,
and from the
evil
of their
doings.
23
Am I a
God
at
hand,
saith
the
LORD,
and not a
God
afar
off?
24
Can
any
hide
himself in secret
places
that I shall not
see
him?
saith
the
LORD.
Do not I
fill
heaven
and
earth?
saith
the
LORD.
25
I have
heard
what the
prophets
said,
that
prophesy
lies
in my
name,
saying,
I have
dreamed,
I have
dreamed.
26
How long shall this
be
in the
heart
of the
prophets
that
prophesy
lies?
yea, they are
prophets
of the
deceit
of their own
heart;
27
Which
think
to cause my
people
to
forget
my
name
by their
dreams
which they
tell
every
man
to his
neighbour,
as their
fathers
have
forgotten
my
name
for
Baal.
28
The
prophet
that hath a
dream,
let him
tell
a
dream;
and he that hath my
word,
let him
speak
my
word
faithfully.
What is the
chaff
to the
wheat?
saith
the
LORD.
29
Is not my
word
like
as a
fire?
saith
the
LORD;
and like a
hammer
that
breaketh
the
rock
in
pieces?
30
Therefore, behold, I am against the
prophets,
saith
the
LORD,
that
steal
my
words
every
one
from his
neighbour.
31
Behold, I am against the
prophets,
saith
the
LORD,
that
use
their
tongues,
and
say,
He
saith.
32
Behold, I am against them that
prophesy
false
dreams,
saith
the
LORD,
and do
tell
them, and cause my
people
to
err
by their
lies,
and by their
lightness;
yet I
sent
them not, nor
commanded
them: therefore they shall not
profit
this
people
at
all,
saith
the
LORD.
