Jeremiah 23:34-36
1599 Geneva Bible
34 And the prophet, or the priest, or the people that shall say, The [a]burden of the Lord, I will even visit every such one, and his house.
35 Thus shall ye say every one to his neighbor, and every one to his brother, What hath the Lord answered? and what hath the Lord spoken?
36 And the burden of the Lord shall ye mention no more: for every man’s [b]word shall be his burden: for ye have perverted the words of the living God, the Lord of hosts our God.
