Jeremiah 23:21-23

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²¹ I did not send the prophets,
    yet they ran;
I did not speak to them,
    yet they prophesied.
²² But if they had stood in my council,
    then they would have proclaimed my words to my people,
and they would have turned them from their evil way,
    and from the evil of their doings.
