Jeremiah 23:15-17

International Standard Version

“I’m about to make them eat wormwood^[a]
    and drink poisoned water,
because godlessness has spread from the
    prophets of Jerusalem throughout the land.”

¹⁶ This is what the Lord of the Heavenly Armies says:

“Don’t listen to the words of the prophets
    who are prophesying to you;
        they’re giving you false hopes.
They declare visions from their own minds—
    they don’t come from the Lord!^[b]
17 They keep on saying to those who despise me,
    ‘The Lord has said, “You will have peace.”’
To all who stubbornly follow their own desires^[c] they say,
    ‘Disaster won’t come upon you.’
