Jeremiah 23:18-22

18For who hath stoodH5975 in the counselH5475 of YhwhH3068, and hath perceivedH7200 and heardH8085 his wordH1697? who hath markedH7181 his wordH1697, and heardH8085 it?1

19Behold, a whirlwindH5591 of YhwhH3068 is gone forthH3318 in furyH2534, even a grievousH2342 whirlwindH5591: it shall fall grievouslyH2342 upon the headH7218 of the wickedH7563.

20The angerH639 of YhwhH3068 shall not returnH7725, until he have executedH6213, and till he have performedH6965 the thoughtsH4209 of his heartH3820: in the latterH319 daysH3117 ye shall considerH995 it perfectlyH998.

21I have not sentH7971 these prophetsH5030, yet they ranH7323: I have not spokenH1696 to them, yet they prophesiedH5012.

22But if they had stoodH5975 in my counselH5475, and had caused my peopleH5971 to hearH8085 my wordsH1697, then they should have turnedH7725 them from their evilH7451 wayH1870, and from the evilH7455 of their doingsH4611.
