Jeremiah 23:31-33

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³¹ Behold I am against the prophets, saith the Lord: who use their tongues, and say: The Lord saith it.

³² Behold I am against the prophets that have lying dreams, saith the Lord: and tell them, and cause my people to err by their lying, and by their wonders: when I sent them not, nor commanded them, who have not profited this people at all, saith the Lord.

³³ If therefore this people, or the prophet, or the priest shall ask thee, saying: What is the burden of the Lord? thou shalt say to them: You are the burden: for I will cast you away, saith the Lord.
