Jeremiah 23:32-34
Expanded Bible
32 I am against the prophets who prophesy false dreams,” says the Lord. “They mislead my people with their lies and ·false teachings [recklessness]! I did not send them or command them to do anything for me. They can’t help the people of Judah at all,” says the Lord.
The Sad Message from the Lord
33 “Suppose this people [C of Judah], a prophet, or a priest asks you [C Jeremiah]: ‘What is the ·message [oracle; burden] from the Lord?’ You will answer them and say, ‘You are a heavy ·load [burden] to the Lord, and I will throw you down, says the Lord.’ 34 A prophet or a priest or one of the people might say, ‘This is a ·message [oracle; burden] from the Lord.’ I will punish him [C for lying that he has a message from God] and his whole family.

32 Indeed, I am against those who prophesy false dreams,(A)” declares the Lord. “They tell them and lead my people astray(B) with their reckless lies,(C) yet I did not send(D) or appoint them. They do not benefit(E) these people in the least,” declares the Lord.
False Prophecy
33 “When these people, or a prophet or a priest, ask you, ‘What is the message(F) from the Lord?’ say to them, ‘What message? I will forsake(G) you, declares the Lord.’ 34 If a prophet or a priest or anyone else claims, ‘This is a message(H) from the Lord,’ I will punish(I) them and their household.
