Jeremiah 23:36-39

Living Bible

³⁶ But stop using this term, “God’s sad news.” For what is sad is you and your lying. You are twisting my words and inventing “messages from God” that I didn’t speak. ³⁷ You may respectfully ask Jeremiah, “What is the Lord’s message? What has he said to you?” ^38-39 But if you ask him about “today’s sad news from God,” when I have warned you not to mock like that, then I, the Lord God, will unburden myself of the burden^[a] you are to me. I will cast you out of my presence, you and this city I gave to you and your fathers.
