Jeremiah 23:34-36

Contemporary English Version

³⁴ If any of you say, “Here is news from the Lord,” I will punish you and your families, even if you are a prophet or a priest. ³⁵ Instead, you must ask your friends and relatives, “What answer did the Lord give?” or “What has the Lord said?” ³⁶ It seems that you each have your own news! So if you say, “Here is news from the Lord,” you are twisting my words into a lie. Remember that I am your God, the Lord All-Powerful.
