Jeremiah 23:25-32

Rotherham(i) 25 I have heard what the prophets, have said, who prophesy in my name falsely, saying,––I have dreamed! I have dreamed! 26 How long, shall it be, in the heart of the prophets, [To be] prophets of falsehood,––And prophets of the deceit of their own heart? 27 Who lay a plot to cause my people, to forget, my name, by their dreams which they relate, every man to his neighbour,––Just as their fathers forgat, my name, for Baal. 28 The prophet with whom is a dream, Let him relate it as, a dream, And, he with whom is my word, Let him speak my word as, truth,––What is the chaff, to the wheat? Demandeth Yahweh: 29 Is not my word, like this, Like fire? Demandeth Yahweh,––And like a hammer, that breaketh in pieces a cliff? 30 Therefore! behold me! against the prophets, Declareth Yahweh,––who steal my words, every man from his neighbour: 31 Behold me! against the prophets, Declareth Yahweh, who presume with their tongue and declare, He declareth: 32 Behold me! against such as prophesy the dreams of falsehood, Declareth Yahweh, who have related them, and led astray my people, with their falsehoods and with their recklessness,––whereas, I, had not sent them, nor commanded them, so that they could be of no, profit, to this people, Declareth Yahweh.
