Jeremiah 23:31-33

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³¹ See, I am against the prophets, says the Lord, who use their own tongues and say, “Says the Lord.” ³² See, I am against those who prophesy lying dreams, says the Lord, and who tell them, and who lead my people astray by their lies and their recklessness, when I did not send them or appoint them; so they do not profit this people at all, says the Lord.

³³ When this people, or a prophet, or a priest asks you, “What is the burden of the Lord?” you shall say to them, “You are the burden,^[a] and I will cast you off, says the Lord.”
