Jeremiah 23:8-10
New American Standard Bible
8 (A)but, ‘As the Lord lives, who (B)brought up and led the descendants of the household of Israel back from the north land and from all the countries where I had driven them.’ Then they will live on their own soil.”
False Prophets Denounced
9 As for the prophets:
My (C)heart is broken within me,
All my bones tremble;
I have become like a drunken man,
And like a man overcome by wine,
Because of the Lord
And because of His holy words.
10 For the land is full of (D)adulterers;
For the land (E)mourns because of the curse.
The (F)pastures of the wilderness have dried up.
Their course is evil
And their might is not right.
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.
