Contemporary English Version
Jeremiah 23:17-19
Contemporary English Version
17 These prophets go to people
who refuse to respect me
and who are stubborn
and do whatever they please.
The prophets tell them,
“The Lord has promised
everything will be fine.”
18 But I, the Lord, tell you
that these prophets
have never attended a meeting
of my council in heaven[a]
or heard me speak.
19 They are evil! So in my anger
I will strike them
like a violent storm.
Footnotes
- 23.18 a meeting of my council in heaven: Sometimes, prophets had visions of the Lord meeting with his angels (see 1 Kings 22.19-23).
