Jeremiah 5:12-14

Complete Jewish Bible

¹² They have denied Adonai,
they have said, “He won’t do anything,
calamity will not strike us,
we will see neither sword nor famine.
¹³ The prophets are merely wind,
they do not have the word;
the things that they are predicting
will happen only to them.”

“Because you people speak this way,
I will make my words fire in your mouth, [Yirmeyahu,]
and this people wood;
so that it will devour them.
