Jeremiah 14:14-18

14Then Jehovah saidH559 unto me, The prophetsH5030 prophesyH5012 liesH8267 in my nameH8034; I sentH7971 them not, neither have I commandedH6680 them, neither spake I unto them: they prophesyH5012 unto you a lyingH8267 visionH2377, and divinationH7081, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their own heartH3820. 15ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saith Jehovah concerning the prophetsH5030 that prophesyH5012 in my nameH8034, and I sentH7971 them not, yet they sayH559, SwordH2719 and famineH7458 shall not beH1961 in this landH776: By swordH2719 and famineH7458 shall those prophetsH5030 beH1961 consumed. 16And the peopleH5971 to whom they prophesyH5012 shall beH1961 castH7993 out in the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389 because of the famineH7458 and the swordH2719; and they shall have none to buryH6912 them—them, their wivesH802, nor their sonsH1121, nor their daughtersH1323: for I will pourH8210 their wickednessH7451 upon them. 17And thou shalt sayH559 this wordH1697 unto them, Let mine eyesH5869 run down with tearsH1832 nightH3915 and dayH3119, and let them not ceaseH1820; for the virginH1330 daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 is brokenH7665 with a greatH1419 breach, with a veryH3966 grievous woundH4347. 18If I goH3318 forthH3318 into the fieldH7704, then, behold, the slainH2491 with the swordH2719! and if I enter into the cityH5892, then, behold, they that are sick with famineH7458! for both the prophetH5030 and the priestH3548 goH3318 about in the landH776, and have no knowledge.
