Jeremiah 23:14-16
Good News Translation
14 (A)But I have seen the prophets in Jerusalem do even worse:

so that no one stops doing what is evil.
To me they are all as bad

15 “So then, this is what I, the Lord Almighty, say about the prophets of Jerusalem:
I will give them bitter plants to eat
and poison to drink,
because they have spread ungodliness throughout the land.”
16 The Lord Almighty said to the people of Jerusalem, “Do not listen to what the prophets say; they are filling you with false hopes. They tell you what they have imagined and not what I have said.

“I will make them eat bitter food
and drink poisoned water,(G)
because from the prophets of Jerusalem
ungodliness(H) has spread throughout the land.”
16 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
