Jeremiah 23:16-22
Names of God Bible
16 This is what Yahweh Tsebaoth says:
Don’t listen to what the prophets are saying to you.
They fill you with false hope.
They speak about visions that they dreamed up.
These visions are not from Yahweh.
17 They keep saying to those who despise me,
“Yahweh says, ‘Everything will go well for you.’”
They tell all who live by their own stubborn ways,
“Nothing bad will happen to you.”
18 Who is in Yahweh’s inner circle
and sees and hears his word?
Who pays attention and listens to his word?
19 The storm of Yahweh will come with his anger.
Like a windstorm, it will swirl down on the heads of the wicked.
20 The anger of Yahweh will not turn back
until he has done everything he intends to do.
In the last days you will understand this clearly.
21 I didn’t send these prophets,
yet they ran with their message.
I didn’t speak to them,
yet they prophesied.
22 If they had been in my inner circle,
they would have announced my words to my people.
They would have turned back from their evil ways
and the evil they have done.
