Jeremiah 23:20-22

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁰ The wrath of the Lord shall not return till he execute it, and till he accomplish the thought of his heart: in the latter days you shall understand his counsel.

²¹ I did not send prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.

²² If they stood in my counsel, and had made my words known to my people, I should have turned them from their evil way and from their wicked doings.
