Jeremiah 23:9-11

EasyEnglish Bible

⁹ I am very upset about what the prophets are doing.
    My body is shaking.
I move like a man who has become drunk,
    someone who has drunk too much wine.
I am afraid because of the Lord
    and the holy message that he has spoken.
¹⁰ The land is full of people who are not faithful to God.
The prophets live wicked lives.
    They use their power in a bad way.
Because of that, God has cursed the land.
    The land is as dry as a desert,
    and the fields have no grass.
¹¹ The Lord says,
    ‘The prophets and the priests are all wicked.
I see the evil things that they do,
    even in my temple.
