rsv@Jeremiah:23:35 @ Thus shall you say, every one to his neighbor and every one to his brother, `What has the LORD answered?' or `What has the LORD spoken?'
rsv@Jeremiah:23:36 @ But `the burden of the LORD' you shall mention no more, for the burden is every man's own word, and you pervert the words of the living God, the LORD of hosts, our God.
rsv@Jeremiah:23:37 @ Thus you shall say to the prophet, `What has the LORD answered you?' or `What has the LORD spoken?'
rsv@Jeremiah:23:38 @ But if you say, `The burden of the LORD,' thus says the LORD, `Because you have said these words, "The burden of the LORD," when I sent to you, saying, "You shall not say, `The burden of the LORD,'"

rsv@Jeremiah:23:40 @ And I will bring upon you everlasting reproach and perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.'"
