Lying Prophets
13Then I said: “Ah, Lord God, behold, the prophets isay to them, ‘You shall not see the sword, nor shall you have famine, but I will give you assured peace in this place.’” 14And the Lord said to me: “The jprophets are prophesying lies in my name. kI did not send them, nor did I command them or speak to them. They are prophesying to you a lying vision, lworthless divination, and mthe deceit of their own minds.Jeremiah 28:3-9
3 nWithin otwo years I will bring back to this place all the vessels of the Lord’s house, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place and carried to Babylon. 4I will also bring back to this place pJeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and all the exiles from Judah who went to Babylon, declares the Lord, qfor I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.”5Then the prophet Jeremiah spoke to Hananiah the prophet in the presence of the priests and all the people who were standing in the house of the Lord, 6and the prophet Jeremiah said, r“Amen! May the Lord do so; may the Lord make the words that you have prophesied come true, and bring back to this place from Babylon the vessels of the house of the Lord, and all the exiles. 7Yet hear now this word that I speak in your hearing and in the hearing of all the people. 8 sThe prophets who preceded you and me from ancient times prophesied war, famine, and pestilence against many countries and great kingdoms. 9 tAs for the prophet who prophesies peace, when the word of that prophet comes to pass, then it will be known that the Lord has truly sent the prophet.”
Lamentations 2:14
14 uYour prophets have seen for youfalse and deceptive visions;
vthey have not exposed your iniquity
to wrestore your fortunes,
xbut have seen for you yoracles
that are false and misleading.
