Jeremiah 27:15-17
EasyEnglish Bible
15 The Lord says, “I have not sent those prophets. They are using my name to tell you lies. If you agree with them, I will chase you all out of the land, including those false prophets. You will die in a foreign land.” ’
16 I also spoke to the priests and to all the people. I told them, ‘The Lord says, “Do not listen to the words of your prophets. They say that the people of Babylon will soon bring back the valuable things that they took from the Lord's temple. But the things that they tell you are lies. 17 Do not listen to them. Agree to serve the king of Babylon. Then you will continue to live. This city does not need to become a heap of stones!”

Jeremiah 27:15-17
New International Version
15 ‘I have not sent(A) them,’ declares the Lord. ‘They are prophesying lies in my name.(B) Therefore, I will banish you and you will perish,(C) both you and the prophets who prophesy to you.’”
16 Then I said to the priests and all these people, “This is what the Lord says: Do not listen to the prophets who say, ‘Very soon now the articles(D) from the Lord’s house will be brought back from Babylon.’ They are prophesying lies to you. 17 Do not listen(E) to them. Serve the king of Babylon, and you will live.(F) Why should this city become a ruin?
