updv Jeremiah:23:9-32
updv@Jeremiah:23:9 @ Concerning the prophets. My heart inside me is broken, all my bones shake; I am like a drunk man, and like an [able-bodied] man whom wine has overcome, because of Yahweh, and because of his holy words.
updv@Jeremiah:23:10 @ For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourns; the pastures of the wilderness are dried up. And their course is evil, and their might is not right;
updv@Jeremiah:23:11 @ for both prophet and priest are profane; yes, in my house I have found their wickedness, says Yahweh.
updv@Jeremiah:23:12 @ Therefore their way will be to them as slippery places in the darkness: they will be driven on, and fall in it; for I will bring evil on them, even the year of their visitation, says Yahweh.
updv@Jeremiah:23:13 @ And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied by Baal, and caused my people Israel to err.
updv@Jeremiah:23:14 @ In the prophets of Jerusalem also I have seen a horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies; and they strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that none returns from his wickedness: they are all of them to me as Sodom, and its inhabitants as Gomorrah.
updv@Jeremiah:23:15 @ Therefore this is what Yahweh of Hosts says concerning the prophets: Look, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall; for from the prophets of Jerusalem has ungodliness gone forth into all the land.
updv@Jeremiah:23:16 @ Thus says Yahweh of hosts, Don't listen to the words of the prophets that prophesy to you(note:){+}(:note): they teach you{+} vanity; they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of Yahweh.
updv@Jeremiah:23:17 @ They say continually to those who despise me, Yahweh has said, You(note:){+}(:note) will have peace; and to everyone who walks in the stubbornness of his own heart they say, No evil will come upon you{+}.
updv@Jeremiah:23:18 @ For who has stood in the council of Yahweh, that he should perceive and hear his word? Who has marked my word, and heard it?
updv@Jeremiah:23:19 @ Look, the tempest of Yahweh, [even his] wrath, has gone forth, yes, a whirling tempest: it will burst on the head of the wicked.
updv@Jeremiah:23:20 @ The anger of Yahweh will not return, until he has executed, and until he has performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days you(note:){+}(:note) will understand it perfectly.
updv@Jeremiah:23:21 @ I did not send these prophets, yet they ran: I did not speak to them, yet they prophesied.
updv@Jeremiah:23:22 @ But if they had stood in my council, then they would cause my people to hear my words, and turn them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.
updv@Jeremiah:23:23 @ Am I a God at hand, says Yahweh, and not a God far off?
updv@Jeremiah:23:24 @ Can any hide himself in secret places so that I will not see him? says Yahweh. Don't I fill heaven and earth? says Yahweh.
updv@Jeremiah:23:25 @ I have heard what the prophets have said, that prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.
updv@Jeremiah:23:26 @ How long will this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies, even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart?
updv@Jeremiah:23:27 @ That think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his fellow man, as their fathers forgot my name for Baal.
updv@Jeremiah:23:28 @ The prophet who has a dream, let him tell a dream; and he who has my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the straw to the wheat? says Yahweh.
updv@Jeremiah:23:29 @ Isn't my word like fire? says Yahweh; and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?
updv@Jeremiah:23:30 @ Therefore, look, I am against the prophets, says Yahweh, that steal my words every man from his fellow man.
updv@Jeremiah:23:31 @ Look, I am against the prophets, says Yahweh, that use their tongues, and say, He says.
updv@Jeremiah:23:32 @ Look, I am against those who prophesy lying dreams, says Yahweh, and tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their vain boasting: yet I did not send them, nor command them; neither do they profit this people at all, says Yahweh.
