Jeremiah 23:16-18
New American Standard Bible 1995
16 Thus says the Lord of hosts,
“(A)Do not listen to the words of the prophets who are prophesying to you.
They are (B)leading you into futility;
They speak a (C)vision of their own [a]imagination,
Not (D)from the mouth of the Lord.
17 “They keep saying to those who (E)despise Me,
‘The Lord has said, “(F)You will have peace”’;
And as for everyone who walks in the (G)stubbornness of his own heart,
They say, ‘(H)Calamity will not come upon you.’
18 “But (I)who has stood in the council of the Lord,
That he should see and hear His word?
Who has given (J)heed to [b]His word and listened?

Jeremiah 23:16-18
New International Version
16 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Do not listen(A) to what the prophets are prophesying to you;
they fill you with false hopes.
They speak visions(B) from their own minds,
not from the mouth(C) of the Lord.
17 They keep saying(D) to those who despise me,
‘The Lord says: You will have peace.’(E)
And to all who follow the stubbornness(F) of their hearts
they say, ‘No harm(G) will come to you.’
18 But which of them has stood in the council(H) of the Lord
to see or to hear his word?
Who has listened and heard his word?
