Jeremiah 5:14-16

Living Bible

¹⁴ Therefore, this is what the Lord God of Hosts says to his prophets: Because of talk like this, I’ll take your words and prophecies and turn them into raging fire and burn up these people like kindling wood. ¹⁵ See, I will bring a distant nation against you, O Israel, says the Lord. It is a mighty nation, an ancient nation^[a] whose language you don’t understand. ¹⁶ Their weapons are deadly; the men are all mighty.
