Jeremiah 5:12-14

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹² They have denied the Lord, and said, It is not he: and the evil shall not come upon us: we shall not see the sword and famine.

¹³ The prophets have spoken in the wind, and there was no word of God in them: these things therefore shall befall them.

¹⁴ Thus saith the Lord the God of hosts: Because you have spoken this word, behold I will make my words in thy mouth as fire, and this people as wood, and it shall devour them.
