Jeremiah 28:15-17

New International Reader's Version

¹⁵ Then Jeremiah the prophet spoke to the false prophet Hananiah. Jeremiah said, “Listen, Hananiah! The Lord hasn’t sent you. But you have tricked these people. Now they trust in lies. ¹⁶ So the Lord says, ‘I am about to remove you from the face of the earth. Before this year is over, you will die. You have taught the people to turn against me.’ ”

¹⁷ In the seventh month of that very year, the false prophet Hananiah died.
