Jeremiah 23:27-29
Living Bible
27 By telling these false dreams they are trying to get my people to forget me in the same way as their fathers did, who turned away to the idols of Baal. 28 Let these false prophets tell their dreams and let my true messengers faithfully proclaim my every word. There is a difference between chaff and wheat! 29 Does not my word burn like fire? asks the Lord. Is it not like a mighty hammer that smashed the rock to pieces?

New International Version

For what has straw to do with grain?” declares the Lord. 29 “Is not my word like fire,”(F) declares the Lord, “and like a hammer(G) that breaks a rock in pieces?
