Jeremiah:23:11-17

*
For both prophet and priest are profane ;
yea ,
in my house have I found their wickedness ,
saith the LORD .
*
Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery ways in the darkness :
they shall be driven on ,
and fall therein :
for I will bring evil upon them ,
even the year of their visitation ,
saith the LORD .
*
And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria ;
they prophesied in Baal Ba #
al #,
and caused my people Israel to err .
*
I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing sha #
aruwrah #:
they commit adultery ,
and walk in lies :
they strengthen also the hands of evildoers ,
that none doth return from his wickedness :
they are all of them unto me as Sodom ,
and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah .
*
Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets ;
Behold ,
I will feed them with wormwood la #
anah #,
and make them drink the water of gall ro #
sh #:
for from the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone forth into all the land .
*
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 .
*
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 .
