Jeremiah 14:14-18

14Then the Lord said to me, “The 1prophets are prophesying falsehood in My name. 2I have neither sent them nor commanded them, nor spoken to them; they are prophesying to you a 3false vision, divination, futility, and the deception of their own 4minds. 15Therefore this is what the Lord says concerning the prophets who are prophesying in My name, although it was not I who sent them--yet they keep saying: ‘There will be no sword or famine in this land’--5by sword and famine those prophets shall meet their end! 16And the people to whom they are prophesying will be 6thrown out into the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; and there will be no one to 7bury them--neither them, nor their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters. For I will 8pour out their own wickedness upon them.17You will say this word to them, ‘9Let my eyes stream down tears night and day, And let them not cease; For the virgin 10daughter of my people has been crushed with a mighty blow, With a sorely 11infected wound.18If I 12go out to the country, There are those killed by the sword! Or if I enter the city, There are diseases from famine! For 13both prophet and priest Have wandered around in the land that they do not know.’”
