Jeremiah 23:14-16
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
14 But among Jerusalem’s prophets
I saw something more shocking:
Adultery, walking in deception,[a]
strengthening the power of the wicked,
so that no one turns from evil;
To me they are all like Sodom,
its inhabitants like Gomorrah.(A)
15 Therefore, thus says the Lord of hosts against the prophets:
Look, I will give them wormwood to eat,
and poisoned water to drink;
For from Jerusalem’s prophets
ungodliness has gone forth into the whole land.(B)
16 Thus says the Lord of hosts:
Do not listen to the words of your prophets,
who fill you with emptiness;
They speak visions from their own fancy,
not from the mouth of the Lord.(C)
Jeremiah 23:14-16
New International Version
14 And among the prophets of Jerusalem
I have seen something horrible:(A)
They commit adultery and live a lie.(B)
They strengthen the hands of evildoers,(C)
so that not one of them turns from their wickedness.(D)
They are all like Sodom(E) to me;
the people of Jerusalem are like Gomorrah.”(F)
15 Therefore this is what the Lord Almighty says concerning the prophets:
“I will make them eat bitter food
and drink poisoned water,(G)
because from the prophets of Jerusalem
ungodliness(H) has spread throughout the land.”
16 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
