And where are your gods which you have made for yourself? Will they arise and save [you] in the time of your affliction? For according to the number of your cities were your gods, O Judah; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem they sacrificed to Baal.

For the Lord shall judge His people, and shall be comforted over His servants; for He saw that they were utterly weakened, and failed in the hostile invasion, and have become feeble.

And the Lord said, Where are their gods on whom they trusted?

And Elisha said to the king of Israel, What have I to do with you? Go to the prophets of your father, and the prophets of your mother. And the king of Israel said to him, Has the Lord called the three kings to deliver them into the hands of Moab?

And they healed the breach of My people [imperfectly], making light [of it], and saying, Peace, peace, and where is peace?

[This translation omits this verse.]

And I said, Ah, Lord [God]! Behold, their prophets prophesy, and say, You shall not see a sword, nor shall famine be among you; for I will give truth and peace on the land, and in this place.

Therefore thus says the Lord concerning the prophets that prophesy lies in My name, and I sent them not, who say, Sword and famine shall not be upon this land; they shall die by a grievous death, and the prophets shall be consumed by famine.

They say to them that reject the word of the Lord, There shall be peace to you; and to all that walk after their own lusts, and to everyone that walks in the error of his heart, they have said, No evil shall come upon you.

For they prophesy unrighteous [words] to you,

I spoke to you, and to all this people, and to the priests, saying, Thus said the Lord: Do not listen to the words of the prophets that prophesy to you, saying, Behold, the vessels of the Lord's house shall return from Babylon- for they prophesy unrighteous [words] to you.

If they are prophets, and if the word of the Lord is in them, let them meet Me, for thus has the Lord said.

And it came to pass in the fourth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fifth month, [that] Hananiah the false prophet, the son of Azur, from Gibeon, spoke to me in the house of the Lord, in the sight of the priests and all the people, saying,

Yet two full years, and I will return into this place the vessels of the house of the Lord,

Then Jeremiah spoke to Hananiah in the sight of all the people, and in the sight of the priests that stood in the house of the Lord,

Then Hananiah took the yokes from the neck of Jeremiah in the sight of all the people, and broke them to pieces.

And the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, after Hananiah had broken the yokes off his neck, saying,

For thus said the Lord: I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all the nations, that they may serve the king of Babylon.

Therefore thus said the Lord: Behold, I [will] cast you off from the face of the earth- this year you shall die!

Send to the captivity, saying, Thus says the Lord concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite: Since Shemaiah has prophesied to you, and I sent him not, and he has made you to trust in iniquity,

NUN. Your prophets have seen for you false and deceptive visions, and they have not discovered your iniquity, to turn back your captivity; but they have seen for you vain burdens, and worthless visions.

Because they have caused My people to err, saying, Peace; and there is no peace; and one builds a wall, and they plaster it- it shall fall.

And lo! The wall has fallen; and will they not say to you, Where is your plaster with which you plastered [it?]

And I will break down the wall which you have plastered, and it shall fall; and I will lay it on the ground, and its foundations shall be discovered, and it shall fall; and you shall be consumed with rebukes; and you shall know that I am the Lord.

even the prophets of Israel, who prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and who see [visions of] peace for her, and there is no peace, says the Lord.
