Jeremiah 23:14-16
Contemporary English Version
Jeremiah 23:14-16
Contemporary English Version
14 (A) And you prophets in Jerusalem
are even worse.
You're unfaithful in marriage[a]
and never tell the truth.[b]
You even lead others to sin
instead of helping them
turn back to me.
You and the people of Jerusalem
are evil like Sodom
and Gomorrah.[c]
15 You prophets in Jerusalem
have spread evil everywhere.
That's why I, the Lord, promise
to give you bitter poison
to eat and drink.
The Lord Gives a Warning
The Lord said:
16 Don't listen to the lies
of these false prophets,
you people of Judah!
The message they preach
is something they imagined;
it did not come from me,
the Lord All-Powerful.
