Jeremiah 23:9-11

Good News Translation

⁹ My heart is crushed,
    and I am trembling.
Because of the Lord,
    because of his holy words,
    I am like a man who is drunk,
    someone who has had too much wine.
¹⁰ The land is full of people unfaithful to the Lord;
    they live wicked lives and misuse their power.
Because of the Lord's curse the land mourns
    and the pastures are dry.

“The prophets and the priests are godless;
    I have caught them doing evil in the Temple itself.
