Jeremiah 23:33-38

33“Now whenH3588 thisH2088 peopleH5971 orH176 a prophetH5030 orH176 priestH3548 asks youH7592, ‘WhatH4100 is the burdenH4853 of the LORDH3068H559?’ you are to sayH559 to themH413, ‘WhatH4100 burdenH4853? I will forsakeH5203 youH853, declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.’

34As for the prophetH5030 or priestH3548 or anyoneH5971 whoH834 claimsH559, ‘This is the burdenH4853 of the LORDH3068,’ I will punishH6485H5921 thatH1931H5921 manH376 and his householdH1004.

35This is whatH3541 each manH376 is to sayH559 toH5921 his friendH7453H376 and toH413 his brotherH251: ‘WhatH4100 has the LORDH3068 answeredH6030?’ or ‘WhatH4100 has the LORDH3068 spokenH1696?’ 36But referH2142 noH3808 moreH5750 to the burdenH4853 of the LORDH3068, forH3588 eachH376 man’s wordH1697 becomesH1961 the burdenH4853, so that you pervertH2015 the wordsH1697 of the livingH2416 GodH430, the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635, our GodH430.

37ThusH3541 you are to sayH559 toH413 the prophetH5030: ‘WhatH4100 has the LORDH3068 answered youH6030?’ and ‘WhatH4100 has the LORDH3068 spokenH1696?’

38But ifH518 you claimH559, ‘This is the burdenH4853 of the LORDH3068,’ thenH3651 this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559: BecauseH3282 you have saidH559, ‘This is the burdenH4853 of the LORDH3068,’ and I specifically toldH7971H413H559 you notH3808 to make this claimH559,
