Jeremiah 23:8-10
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
8 but rather, “As the Lord lives, who brought the descendants of the house of Israel up from the land of the north”—and from all the lands to which I banished them; they shall again live on their own soil.
The False Prophets[a]
9 Concerning the prophets:
My heart is broken within me,
all my bones tremble;
I am like a drunk,
like one overcome by wine,
Because of the Lord,
because of his holy words.
10 The land is filled with adulterers;
because of the curse the land mourns,
the pastures of the wilderness are withered.(A)
Theirs is an evil course,
theirs is unjust power.

Jeremiah 23:8-10
New International Version
8 but they will say, ‘As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the descendants of Israel up out of the land of the north and out of all the countries where he had banished them.’ Then they will live in their own land.”(A)
Lying Prophets
9 Concerning the prophets:
My heart(B) is broken within me;
all my bones tremble.(C)
I am like a drunken man,
like a strong man overcome by wine,
because of the Lord
and his holy words.(D)
10 The land is full of adulterers;(E)
because of the curse[a](F) the land lies parched
and the pastures(G) in the wilderness are withered.(H)
The prophets follow an evil course
and use their power unjustly.
