Jeremiah 23:16-22 ▼

16 Thus says YHWH of Hosts: “Do not listen to the words of the prophets who are prophesying to you?. They make you? vain; they speak a vision of their own heart, and not from the mouth of YHWH.

17 They keep saying to those despising Me, ‘YHWH has said you? will have peace.’ And as for everyone walking in the stubbornness of his heart, they say, ‘Evil shall not come upon you?.’

18 But who has stood in the counsel of YHWH, and has perceived and has heard His word? Who has paid attention to His word, and has heard it?

19 Behold, the tempest of YHWH in fury goes forth, and a whirling tempest swirling down upon on the head of the wicked.

20 The nose of YHWH will not turn back until He has done it, and until He has performed the thoughts of His heart; in the following days you? will understand it clearly.

21 I have not sent these prophets, and they have run; I have not spoken to them, and they have prophesied.

22 But if they had stood in My counsel and had caused My people to hear My words, then they would have turned them from the evil of their way and from the evil of their deeds.”
