Jeremiah 23:16-20

16ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, Hearken not unto the wordsH1697 of the prophetsH5030 that prophesyH5012 unto you: they teach you vanity; they speakH1696 a visionH2377 of their own heartH3820, and not out of the mouthH6310 of Jehovah. 17They sayH559 continually unto them that despise me, Jehovah hath saidH559, Ye shall have peaceH7965; and unto every one that walketh in the stubbornnessH8307 of his own heartH3820 they sayH559, No evilH7451 shall comeH935 upon you. 18For who hath stoodH5975 in the councilH5475 of Jehovah, that he should perceive and hearH8085 his wordH1697? who hath marked my wordH1697, and heardH8085 it? 19Behold, the tempestH5591 of Jehovah, even his wrathH2534, is goneH3318 forthH3318, yea, a whirling tempestH5591: it shall burst upon the headH7218 of the wickedH7563. 20The angerH639 of Jehovah shall not returnH7725, until he have executed, and till he have performed the intents of his heartH3820: in the latterH319 daysH3117 ye shall understandH995 it perfectly.
