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.

Jeremiah 23:20-22
New International Version
20 The anger(A) of the Lord will not turn back(B)
until he fully accomplishes
the purposes of his heart.
In days to come
you will understand it clearly.
21 I did not send(C) these prophets,
yet they have run with their message;
I did not speak to them,
yet they have prophesied.
22 But if they had stood in my council,(D)
they would have proclaimed(E) my words to my people
and would have turned(F) them from their evil ways
and from their evil deeds.(G)
