Jeremiah 23:2
Therefore thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of Israel{H3478} against the pastors{H7462}{(H8802)} that feed{H7462}{(H8802)} my people{H5971}; Ye have scattered{H6327}{(H8689)} my flock{H6629}, and driven them away{H5080}{(H8686)}, and have not visited{H6485}{(H8804)} them: behold, I will visit{H6485}{(H8802)} upon you the evil{H7455} of your doings{H4611}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}.
Jeremiah 23:3
And I will gather{H6908}{(H8762)} the remnant{H7611} of my flock{H6629} out of all countries{H776} whither I have driven{H5080}{(H8689)} them, and will bring them again{H7725}{(H8689)} to their folds{H5116}; and they shall be fruitful{H6509}{(H8804)} and increase{H7235}{(H8804)}.
Jeremiah 23:4

Jeremiah 23:5
Behold, the days{H3117} come{H935}{(H8802)}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, that I will raise{H6965}{(H8689)} unto David{H1732} a righteous{H6662} Branch{H6780}, and a King{H4428} shall reign{H4427}{(H8804)} and prosper{H7919}{(H8689)}, and shall execute{H6213}{(H8804)} judgment{H4941} and justice{H6666} in the earth{H776}.

In his days{H3117} Judah{H3063} shall be saved{H3467}{(H8735)}, and Israel{H3478} shall dwell{H7931}{(H8799)} safely{H983}: and this is his name{H8034} whereby he shall be called{H7121}{(H8799)}, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS{H3072}.
Jeremiah 23:7
Therefore, behold, the days{H3117} come{H935}{(H8802)}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, that they shall no more say{H559}{(H8799)}, The LORD{H3068} liveth{H2416}, which brought up{H5927}{(H8689)} the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} out of the land{H776} of Egypt{H4714};

Jeremiah 23:9
Mine heart{H3820} within{H7130} me is broken{H7665}{(H8738)} because of the prophets{H5030}; all my bones{H6106} shake{H7363}{(H8804)}; I am like a drunken{H7910} man{H376}, and like a man{H1397} whom wine{H3196} hath overcome{H5674}{(H8804)}, because{H6440} of the LORD{H3068}, and because of the words{H1697} of his holiness{H6944}.
Jeremiah 23:10
For the land{H776} is full{H4390}{(H8804)} of adulterers{H5003}{(H8764)}; for because{H6440} of swearing{H423} the land{H776} mourneth{H56}{(H8804)}; the pleasant places{H4999} of the wilderness{H4057} are dried up{H3001}{(H8804)}, and their course{H4794} is evil{H7451}, and their force{H1369} is not right.
Jeremiah 23:11
For both prophet{H5030} and priest{H3548} are profane{H2610}{(H8804)}; yea, in my house{H1004} have I found{H4672}{(H8804)} their wickedness{H7451}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}.
Jeremiah 23:12
Wherefore their way{H1870} shall be unto them as slippery{H2519} ways in the darkness{H653}: they shall be driven on{H1760}{(H8735)}, and fall{H5307}{(H8804)} therein: for I will bring{H935}{(H8686)} evil{H7451} upon them, even the year{H8141} of their visitation{H6486}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}.
Jeremiah 23:13
And I have seen{H7200}{(H8804)} folly{H8604} in the prophets{H5030} of Samaria{H8111}; they prophesied{H5012}{(H8694)} in Baal{H1168}, and caused my people{H5971} Israel{H3478} to err{H8582}{(H8686)}.
Jeremiah 23:14
I have seen{H7200}{(H8804)} also in the prophets{H5030} of Jerusalem{H3389} an horrible thing{H8186}: they commit adultery{H5003}{(H8800)}, and walk{H1980}{(H8800)} in lies{H8267}: they strengthen{H2388}{(H8765)} also the hands{H3027} of evildoers{H7489}{(H8688)}, that none{H376} doth return{H7725}{(H8804)} from his wickedness{H7451}: they are all of them unto me as Sodom{H5467}, and the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} thereof as Gomorrah{H6017}.
Jeremiah 23:15
Therefore thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635} concerning the prophets{H5030}; Behold, I will feed{H398}{(H8688)} them with wormwood{H3939}, and make them drink{H8248}{(H8689)} the water{H4325} of gall{H7219}: for from the prophets{H5030} of Jerusalem{H3389} is profaneness{H2613} gone forth{H3318}{(H8804)} into all the land{H776}.
Jeremiah 23:16
Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635}, Hearken{H8085}{(H8799)} not unto the words{H1697} of the prophets{H5030} that prophesy{H5012}{(H8737)} unto you: they make you vain{H1891}{(H8688)}: they speak{H1696}{(H8762)} a vision{H2377} of their own heart{H3820}, and not out of the mouth{H6310} of the LORD{H3068}.
Jeremiah 23:17
They say{H559}{(H8802)} still{H559}{(H8800)} unto them that despise{H5006}{(H8764)} me, The LORD{H3068} hath said{H1696}{(H8765)}, Ye shall have peace{H7965}; and they say{H559}{(H8804)} unto every one that walketh{H1980}{(H8802)} after the imagination{H8307} of his own heart{H3820}, No evil{H7451} shall come{H935}{(H8799)} upon you.
Jeremiah 23:18
For who hath stood{H5975}{(H8804)} in the counsel{H5475} of the LORD{H3068}, and hath perceived{H7200}{(H8799)} and heard{H8085}{(H8799)} his word{H1697}? who hath marked{H7181}{(H8689)} his word{H1697}, and heard{H8085}{(H8799)} it?
Jeremiah 23:19
Behold, a whirlwind{H5591} of the LORD{H3068} is gone forth{H3318}{(H8804)} in fury{H2534}, even a grievous{H2342}{(H8711)} whirlwind{H5591}: it shall fall grievously{H2342}{(H8799)} upon the head{H7218} of the wicked{H7563}.
Jeremiah 23:20
The anger{H639} of the LORD{H3068} shall not return{H7725}{(H8799)}, until he have executed{H6213}{(H8800)}, and till he have performed{H6965}{(H8687)} the thoughts{H4209} of his heart{H3820}: in the latter{H319} days{H3117} ye shall consider{H995}{(H8709)} it perfectly{H998}.
Jeremiah 23:21
I have not sent{H7971}{(H8804)} these prophets{H5030}, yet they ran{H7323}{(H8804)}: I have not spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} to them, yet they prophesied{H5012}{(H8738)}.
Jeremiah 23:22
But if they had stood{H5975}{(H8804)} in my counsel{H5475}, and had caused my people{H5971} to hear{H8085}{(H8686)} my words{H1697}, then they should have turned{H7725}{(H8686)} them from their evil{H7451} way{H1870}, and from the evil{H7455} of their doings{H4611}.
Jeremiah 23:23
Am I a God{H430} at hand{H7138}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, and not a God{H430} afar off{H7350}?
Jeremiah 23:24
Can any{H376} hide{H5641}{(H8735)} himself in secret places{H4565} that I shall not see{H7200}{(H8799)} him? saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}. Do not I fill{H4392} heaven{H8064} and earth{H776}? saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}.
Jeremiah 23:25
I have heard{H8085}{(H8804)} what the prophets{H5030} said{H559}{(H8804)}, that prophesy{H5012}{(H8737)} lies{H8267} in my name{H8034}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, I have dreamed{H2492}{(H8804)}, I have dreamed{H2492}{(H8804)}.
Jeremiah 23:26
How long shall this be{H3426} in the heart{H3820} of the prophets{H5030} that prophesy{H5012}{(H8737)} lies{H8267}? yea, they are prophets{H5030} of the deceit{H8649} of their own heart{H3820};
Jeremiah 23:27
Which think{H2803}{(H8802)} to cause my people{H5971} to forget{H7911}{(H8687)} my name{H8034} by their dreams{H2472} which they tell{H5608}{(H8762)} every man{H376} to his neighbour{H7453}, as their fathers{H1} have forgotten{H7911}{(H8804)} my name{H8034} for Baal{H1168}.
Jeremiah 23:28
The prophet{H5030} that hath a dream{H2472}, let him tell{H5608}{(H8762)} a dream{H2472}; and he that hath my word{H1697}, let him speak{H1696}{(H8762)} my word{H1697} faithfully{H571}. What is the chaff{H8401} to the wheat{H1250}? saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}.
Jeremiah 23:29
Is not my word{H1697} like{H3541} as a fire{H784}? saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}; and like a hammer{H6360} that breaketh{H6327} the rock{H5553} in pieces{H6327}{(H8787)}?
Jeremiah 23:30
Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets{H5030}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, that steal{H1589}{(H8764)} my words{H1697} every one{H376} from his neighbour{H7453}.
Jeremiah 23:31
Behold, I am against the prophets{H5030}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, that use{H3947}{(H8802)} their tongues{H3956}, and say{H5001}{(H8799)}, He saith{H5002}{(H8803)}.
Jeremiah 23:32
Behold, I am against them that prophesy{H5012}{(H8737)} false{H8267} dreams{H2472}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, and do tell{H5608}{(H8762)} them, and cause my people{H5971} to err{H8582}{(H8686)} by their lies{H8267}, and by their lightness{H6350}; yet I sent{H7971}{(H8804)} them not, nor commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} them: therefore they shall not profit{H3276}{(H8686)} this people{H5971} at all{H3276}{(H8687)}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}.
Jeremiah 23:33

Jeremiah 23:35
Thus shall ye say{H559}{(H8799)} every one{H376} to his neighbour{H7453}, and every one{H376} to his brother{H251}, What hath the LORD{H3068} answered{H6030}{(H8804)}? and, What hath the LORD{H3068} spoken{H1696}{(H8765)}?
Jeremiah 23:36
And the burden{H4853} of the LORD{H3068} shall ye mention{H2142}{(H8799)} no more: for every man's{H376} word{H1697} shall be his burden{H4853}; for ye have perverted{H2015}{(H8804)} the words{H1697} of the living{H2416} God{H430}, of the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635} our God{H430}.

Jeremiah 23:38
But{H518} since ye say{H559}{(H8799)}, The burden{H4853} of the LORD{H3068}; therefore thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068}; Because ye say{H559}{(H8800)} this word{H1697}, The burden{H4853} of the LORD{H3068}, and I have sent{H7971}{(H8799)} unto you, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Ye shall not say{H559}{(H8799)}, The burden{H4853} of the LORD{H3068};
Jeremiah 23:39
Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly{H5377}{(H8800)} forget{H5382}{(H8804)} you, and I will forsake{H5203}{(H8804)} you, and the city{H5892} that I gave{H5414}{(H8804)} you and your fathers{H1}, and cast you out of my presence{H6440}:
Jeremiah 23:40
