Jeremiah 23:36-38

New American Standard Bible 1995

³⁶ For you will no longer remember the oracle of the Lord, because every man’s own word will become the oracle, and you have ^(A)perverted the words of the ^(B)living God, the Lord of hosts, our God. ³⁷ Thus you will say to that prophet, ‘What has the Lord answered you?’ and, ‘What has the Lord spoken?’ ³⁸ For if you say, ‘The oracle of the Lord!’ surely thus says the Lord, ‘Because you said this word, “The oracle of the Lord!” I have also sent to you, saying, “You shall not say, ‘The oracle of the Lord!’”’
