Jeremiah 23:18-22

18But none of those prophets has met with the Lord. They have not seen him and they have not heard his voice. So none of them has ever listened to him to know what he is saying.

19But look! The Lord's anger will come like a strong storm. It will blow away the heads of those wicked people.

20The Lord will not stop being angry, until he has finished what he has decided to do. When the time comes, you will understand this clearly.

21I did not send those prophets. But they have still run to speak to you. I did not tell them what to say, but they have continued to prophesy.

22If they had really met with me, they would have spoken my message to my people. They would have caused my people to turn away from their wicked way of life. They would have stopped my people doing evil things.’
