Jeremiah 23:33-40
33And when this peopleH5971, or the prophetH5030, or a priestH3548, shall askH7592 thee, sayingH559, What is the burdenH4853 of YhwhH3068? thou shalt then sayH559 unto them, What burdenH4853? I will even forsakeH5203 you, saithH5002 YhwhH3068. 34And as for the prophetH5030, and the priestH3548, and the peopleH5971, that shall sayH559, The burdenH4853 of YhwhH3068, I will even punishH6485 that manH376 and his houseH1004.1 35Thus shall ye sayH559 every oneH376 to his neighbourH7453, and every oneH376 to his brotherH251, What hath YhwhH3068 answeredH6030? and, What hath YhwhH3068 spokenH1696? 36And the burdenH4853 of YhwhH3068 shall ye mentionH2142 no more: for every man’sH376 wordH1697 shall be his burdenH4853; for ye have pervertedH2015 the wordsH1697 of the livingH2416 GodH430, of YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635 our GodH430. 37Thus shalt thou sayH559 to the prophetH5030, What hath YhwhH3068 answeredH6030 thee? and, What hath YhwhH3068 spokenH1696? 38ButH518 since ye sayH559, The burdenH4853 of YhwhH3068; therefore thus saithH559 YhwhH3068; Because ye sayH559 this wordH1697, The burdenH4853 of YhwhH3068, and I have sentH7971 unto you, sayingH559, Ye shall not sayH559, The burdenH4853 of YhwhH3068; 39Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterlyH5377 forgetH5382 you, and I will forsakeH5203 you, and the cityH5892 that I gaveH5414 you and your fathersH1, and cast you out of my presenceH6440: 40And I will bringH5414 an everlastingH5769 reproachH2781 upon you, and a perpetualH5769 shameH3640, which shall not be forgottenH7911.
