Jeremiah 23:9-11

Common English Bible

⁹ As for the prophets:
My heart inside me is broken;
    my body aches.^[a]
I stagger like a drunk
    who has had too much wine to drink,
        because of the Lord
        and because of God’s holy words.
¹⁰ Because the country teems
    with adulterers,
    because of them,^[b]
        yes, because their might isn’t right
        and their way is evil,
        the land dries up,
        and the grazing areas in the wilderness wither.^[c]
11 Both prophet and priest are godless;
    I even find their evil in my temple,
        declares the Lord.
