Jeremiah 23:32-34
Legacy Standard Bible
32 Behold, I am against those who have prophesied (A)lying dreams,” declares Yahweh, “and who recounted them and led My people astray by their lying and (B)reckless boasting; yet (C)I did not send them, and I did not command them, and they do not (D)furnish this people the slightest benefit,” declares Yahweh.
33 “Now when this people or the prophet or a priest asks you, saying, ‘What is the [a](E)oracle of Yahweh?’ then you shall say to them, ‘What oracle?’ Yahweh declares, ‘I will (F)abandon you.’ 34 Then as for the prophet or the priest or the people who say, ‘The (G)oracle of Yahweh,’ I will bring punishment upon that man and his household.
