Jeremiah 5:12-13
Holman Christian Standard Bible
12 They have contradicted the Lord
and insisted, “It won’t happen.[a](A)
Harm won’t come to us;
we won’t see sword or famine.”
13 The prophets become only wind,
for the Lord’s word is not in them.
This will in fact happen to them.

Jeremiah 6:13-15
Holman Christian Standard Bible
13 For from the least to the greatest of them,(A)
everyone is making profit dishonestly.(B)
From prophet to priest,
everyone deals falsely.(C)
14 They have treated My people’s brokenness superficially,
claiming, “Peace, peace,”(D)
when there is no peace.
15 Were they ashamed when they acted so abhorrently?
They weren’t at all ashamed.
They can no longer feel humiliation.(E)
Therefore, they will fall among the fallen.
When I punish them, they will collapse,(F)
says the Lord.
