Jeremiah 23:28-32

New American Standard Bible 1995

²⁸ The prophet who has a dream may relate his dream, but let him who has ^(A)My word speak My word in truth. ^(B)What does straw have in common with grain?” declares the Lord. ²⁹ “Is not My word like ^(C)fire?” declares the Lord, “and like a ^(D)hammer which shatters a rock? ³⁰ Therefore behold, ^(E)I am against the prophets,” declares the Lord, “who steal My words from each other. ³¹ Behold, I am against the prophets,” declares the Lord, “who use their tongues and declare, ‘The Lord declares.’ ³² Behold, I am against those who have prophesied ^(F)false dreams,” declares the Lord, “and related them and led My people astray by their falsehoods and ^(G)reckless boasting; yet ^(H)I did not send them or command them, nor do they ^(I)furnish this people the slightest benefit,” declares the Lord.
