Jeremiah 23:32-34
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
32 See, I am against those who prophesy lying dreams, says the Lord, and who tell them, and who lead my people astray by their lies and their recklessness, when I did not send them or appoint them; so they do not profit this people at all, says the Lord.
33 When this people, or a prophet, or a priest asks you, ‘What is the burden of the Lord?’ you shall say to them, ‘You are the burden,[a] and I will cast you off, says the Lord.’ 34 And as for the prophet, priest, or the people who say, ‘The burden of the Lord’, I will punish them and their households.
