Jeremiah 23:33-38
33“When these people, the prophets, or the priests ask you, ‘What revelation has the Lord burdened you with now?’ say to them, ‘You are the burden! I will abandon you, declares the Lord.’
34Suppose the prophets, the priests, or these people say, ‘This is the Lord’s revelation!’ I will punish them and their families.
35They should ask their neighbors and their relatives, ‘What is the Lord’s answer?’ and ‘What did the Lord say?’

37“Jeremiah, say this to the prophets, ‘What was the Lord’s answer to you?’ and ‘What did the Lord say?’
38Suppose they say, ‘This is the Lord’s revelation!’ Then say, ‘This is what the Lord says: Because you have said, “This is the Lord’s revelation!” even though I commanded you not to repeat this saying,
