Jeremiah 23:21-27

21I did not sendH7971 the prophetsH5030, yet they ranH7323; I have not spokenH1696 to them, yet they prophesiedH5012.

22But if they had stoodH5975 in my councilH5475, and had caused my peopleH5971 to hearH8085 my wordsH1697, then would they have turnedH7725 them from their evilH7451 wayH1870 and from the wickednessH7455 of their doings.

23Am I a 1GodH430 at hand, saith Jehovah, and not a 2GodH430 afarH7350 off?

24Can any hideH5641 himself in secretH4565 placesH4565, that I shall not seeH7200 him? saith Jehovah. Do not I fillH4390 the heavensH8064 and the earthH776? saith Jehovah.

25I have heardH8085 what the prophetsH5030 sayH559, who prophesyH5012 falsehoodH8267 in my nameH8034, sayingH559, I have dreamedH2492, I have dreamedH2492.

26How long shall [this] be in the heartH3820 of the prophetsH5030 who prophesyH5012 falsehoodH8267, and who are prophetsH5030 of the deceit of their own heartH3820?

27who think to cause my peopleH5971 to forgetH7911 my nameH8034 by their dreamsH2472 which they tell every manH376 to his neighbour: as their fathersH1 have forgottenH7911 my nameH8034 for BaalH1168.
