Lamentations 2:14-16
Modern English Version
14 Your prophets have seen for you
false and deceptive visions;
they have not revealed your iniquity,
to bring back your captives,
but have seen for you oracles
that are false and misleading.
15 All who pass by
clap their hands at you;
they hiss and shake their heads
at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying,
“Is this the city that men call
the perfection of beauty,
the joy of the whole earth?”
16 All your enemies
have opened their mouth against you;
they hiss and gnash their teeth.
They say, “We have swallowed her up!
Certainly this is the day that we longed for;
we have found it; we have seen it.”
Lamentations 2:14-16
New International Version
14 The visions of your prophets
were false(A) and worthless;
they did not expose your sin
to ward off your captivity.(B)
The prophecies they gave you
were false and misleading.(C)
