Jeremiah 23:28
American Standard Translation
Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
25 I have heard what the prophets have said, that prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.
26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies, even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart?
27 that think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers forgat my name for Baal.
28 The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the straw to the wheat? saith Jehovah.
29 Is not my word like fire? saith Jehovah; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?
30 Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, saith Jehovah, that steal my words every one from his neighbor.
31 Behold, I am against the prophets, saith Jehovah, that use their tongues, and say, He saith.
