Jeremiah 5:13-15
1599 Geneva Bible
13 And the Prophets shall be as [a]wind, and the word is [b]not in them: thus shall it come unto them.
14 Wherefore thus saith the Lord God of hosts, Because ye speak such words, behold, I will put my words into [c]thy mouth, like a fire, and this people shall be as wood, and it shall devour them.
15 Lo, I will bring a nation upon you [d]from far, O house of Israel, saith the Lord, which is a mighty nation, and an ancient nation, a nation whose language thou knowest not, neither understandest what they say.
