Jeremiah 23:16-18

International Children’s Bible

“Don’t pay attention to the things those prophets are saying to you.
    They are trying to fool you.
Those prophets talk of visions from their own minds.
    But they did not get their visions from me.
¹⁷ They say to those who hate me:
    ‘The Lord says: You will have peace.’
They say to those who are stubborn and do as they please:
    ‘Nothing bad will happen to you!’
¹⁸ But none of these prophets has stood in the meeting of angels.
    None of them has seen or heard the message of the Lord.
    None of them has paid close attention to the Lord’s message.
