Jeremiah 23:25-39

I have heard
<08085> (8804)
what the prophets
<05030>
said
<0559> (8804)_,
that prophesy
<05012> (8737)
lies
<08267>
in my name
<08034>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
I have dreamed
<02492> (8804)_,
I have dreamed
<02492> (8804)_.
How long shall [this] be
<03426>
in the heart
<03820>
of the prophets
<05030>
that prophesy
<05012> (8737)
lies
<08267>_?
yea, [they are] prophets
<05030>
of the deceit
<08649>
of their own heart
<03820>_;
Which think
<02803> (8802)
to cause my people
<05971>
to forget
<07911> (8687)
my name
<08034>
by their dreams
<02472>
which they tell
<05608> (8762)
every man
<0376>
to his neighbour
<07453>_,
as their fathers
<01>
have forgotten
<07911> (8804)
my name
<08034>
for Baal
<01168>_.
The prophet
<05030>
that hath a dream
<02472>_,
let him tell
<05608> (8762)
a dream
<02472>_;
and he that hath my word
<01697>_,
let him speak
<01696> (8762)
my word
<01697>
faithfully
<0571>_.
What [is] the chaff
<08401>
to the wheat
<01250>_?
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
{that hath a dream: Heb. with whom is, etc}
[Is] not my word
<01697>
like
<03541>
as a fire
<0784>_?
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
and like a hammer
<06360>
[that] breaketh
<06327> (0)
the rock
<05553>
in pieces
<06327> (8787)_?
Therefore, behold, I [am] against the prophets
<05030>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that steal
<01589> (8764)
my words
<01697>
every one
<0376>
from his neighbour
<07453>_.
Behold, I [am] against the prophets
<05030>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that use
<03947> (8802)
their tongues
<03956>_,
and say
<05001> (8799)_,
He saith
<05002> (8803)_.
{that...: or, that smooth their tongues}
Behold, I [am] against them that prophesy
<05012> (8737)
false
<08267>
dreams
<02472>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
and do tell
<05608> (8762)
them, and cause my people
<05971>
to err
<08582> (8686)
by their lies
<08267>_,
and by their lightness
<06350>_;
yet I sent
<07971> (8804)
them not, nor commanded
<06680> (8765)
them: therefore they shall not profit
<03276> (8686)
this people
<05971>
at all
<03276> (8687)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
And when this people
<05971>_,
or the prophet
<05030>_,
or a priest
<03548>_,
shall ask
<07592> (8799)
thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
What [is] the burden
<04853>
of the LORD
<03068>_?
thou shalt then say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, What burden
<04853>_?
I will even forsake
<05203> (8804)
you, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
And [as for] the prophet
<05030>_,
and the priest
<03548>_,
and the people
<05971>_,
that shall say
<0559> (8799)_,
The burden
<04853>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
I will even punish
<06485> (8804)
that man
<0376>
and his house
<01004>_.
{punish: Heb. visit upon}
Thus shall ye say
<0559> (8799)
every one
<0376>
to his neighbour
<07453>_,
and every one
<0376>
to his brother
<0251>_,
What hath the LORD
<03068>
answered
<06030> (8804)_?
and, What hath the LORD
<03068>
spoken
<01696> (8765)_?
And the burden
<04853>
of the LORD
<03068>
shall ye mention
<02142> (8799)
no more: for every man's
<0376>
word
<01697>
shall be his burden
<04853>_;
for ye have perverted
<02015> (8804)
the words
<01697>
of the living
<02416>
God
<0430>_,
of the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
our God
<0430>_.
Thus shalt thou say
<0559> (8799)
to the prophet
<05030>_,
What hath the LORD
<03068>
answered
<06030> (8804)
thee? and, What hath the LORD
<03068>
spoken
<01696> (8765)_?
But
<0518>
since ye say
<0559> (8799)_,
The burden
<04853>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Because ye say
<0559> (8800)
this word
<01697>_,
The burden
<04853>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and I have sent
<07971> (8799)
unto you, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Ye shall not say
<0559> (8799)_,
The burden
<04853>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly
<05377> (8800)
forget
<05382> (8804)
you, and I will forsake
<05203> (8804)
you, and the city
<05892>
that I gave
<05414> (8804)
you and your fathers
<01>_,
[and cast you] out of my presence
<06440>_:
