Jeremiah 23:14-16
New American Standard Bible
14 Also among the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen a (A)horrible thing:
The committing of (B)adultery and walking in deceit;
And they strengthen the hands of (C)evildoers,
So that no one has turned back from his wickedness.
All of them have become to Me like (D)Sodom,
And her inhabitants like Gomorrah.
15 Therefore this is what the Lord of armies says concerning the prophets:
‘Behold, I am going to (E)feed them wormwood
And make them drink poisonous water,
For from the prophets of Jerusalem
Ungodliness has spread into all the land.’”
16 This is what the Lord of armies says:
“(F)Do not listen to the words of the prophets who are prophesying to you.
They are (G)leading you into futility;
They tell a (H)vision of their own [a]imagination,
Not (I)from the mouth of the Lord.
