Jeremiah 28:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 But hear thou now this word that I will speak in thine ears, and in the ears of all the people.
8 The Prophets that have been before me, and before thee in time past, [a]prophesied against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, and of plagues, and of pestilence.
9 And the Prophet which prophesieth of peace, when the word of the Prophet shall come to pass, then shall the Prophet be known that the Lord hath truly sent him.

- Jeremiah 28:8 Meaning, that the Prophets that did either denounce war or peace, were tried either true or false by the success of their prophecies, albeit God maketh to come to pass sometimes that which the false prophet speaketh to try the faith of his, Deut. 13:3.
