Jeremiah 23:14-16
14Also among the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen a 1horrible thing: The committing of 2adultery and walking in deceit; And they strengthen the hands of 3evildoers, So that no one has turned back from his wickedness. All of them have become to Me like 4Sodom, And her inhabitants like Gomorrah. 15Therefore this is what the Lord of armies says concerning the prophets: ‘Behold, I am going to 5feed them wormwood And make them drink poisonous water, For from the prophets of Jerusalem Ungodliness has spread into all the land.’”
16This is what the Lord of armies says: “6Do not listen to the words of the prophets who are prophesying to you. They are 7leading you into futility; They tell a 8vision of their own 9imagination, Not 10from the mouth of the Lord.
