Jeremiah 23:15-17
New American Standard Bible 1995
15 “Therefore thus says the Lord of hosts concerning the prophets,
‘Behold, I am going to (A)feed them wormwood
And make them drink poisonous water,
For from the prophets of Jerusalem
Pollution has gone forth into all the land.’”
16 Thus says the Lord of hosts,
“(B)Do not listen to the words of the prophets who are prophesying to you.
They are (C)leading you into futility;
They speak a (D)vision of their own [a]imagination,
Not (E)from the mouth of the Lord.
17 “They keep saying to those who (F)despise Me,
‘The Lord has said, “(G)You will have peace”’;
And as for everyone who walks in the (H)stubbornness of his own heart,
They say, ‘(I)Calamity will not come upon you.’
