Jeremiah 27:8-10

New Catholic Bible

⁸ But in the meantime, if any nation or kingdom will not serve King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon or submit its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, then I will punish that nation with the sword, with famine, and with pestilence, says the Lord, until I have ensured their destruction by his hand.

⁹ You, therefore, must not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your dreamers, your soothsayers, and your sorcerers when they say to you that you are not to serve the king of Babylon. ¹⁰ For they are prophesying a lie to you, as a result of which you will be removed far away from your land. I will drive you out, and you will perish.
