Jeremiah 23:16-20

16This is what the Lord of armies says: “1Do not listen to the words of the prophets who are prophesying to you. They are 2leading you into futility; They tell a 3vision of their own 4imagination, Not 5from the mouth of the Lord.17They keep saying to those who 6despise Me, ‘The Lord has said, “7You will have peace”’; And as for everyone who walks in the 8stubbornness of his own heart, They say, ‘9Disaster will not come on you.’18But 10who has stood in the council of the Lord, That he should see and hear His word? Who has paid 11attention to 12His word and listened?19Behold, the 13storm of the Lord has gone forth in wrath, Even a whirling tempest; It will swirl down on the head of the wicked.20The 14anger of the Lord will not turn back Until He has 15performed and carried out the purposes of His heart; 16In the last days you will clearly understand it.
