Jeremiah 23:28-32

28The prophetH5030 that hath a dreamH2472, let him tell a dreamH2472; and he that hath my wordH1697, let him speakH1696 my wordH1697 faithfully. What is the strawH8401 to the wheat? saith Jehovah. 29Is not my wordH1697 like fireH784? saith Jehovah; and like a hammerH6360 that breaketh the rockH5553 in pieces? 30ThereforeH3651, behold, I am against the prophetsH5030, saith Jehovah, that stealH1589 my wordsH1697 every oneH376 from his neighborH7453. 31Behold, I am against the prophetsH5030, saith Jehovah, that use their tonguesH3956, and say, He saith. 32Behold, I am against them that prophesyH5012 lyingH8267 dreamsH2472, saith Jehovah, and do tell them, and cause my peopleH5971 to errH8582 by their liesH8267, and by their vain boasting: yet I sentH7971 them not, nor commandedH6680 them; neither do they profitH3276 this peopleH5971 at all, saith Jehovah.
