Jeremiah 14:14-18
Legacy Standard Bible
14 Then Yahweh said to me, “The (A)prophets are prophesying lies in My name. (B)I have neither sent them nor commanded them nor spoken to them; they are prophesying to you a (C)vision of lies, divination, futility, and the deception of their own hearts. 15 Therefore thus says Yahweh concerning the prophets who are prophesying in My name, although it was not I who sent them—yet they keep saying, ‘There will be no sword or famine in this land’—(D)by that sword and famine those prophets shall [a]meet their end! 16 The people also to whom they are prophesying will be (E)thrown out into the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; and there will be no one to (F)bury them—neither them, nor their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters—for I will (G)pour out their own evil on them.
17 And you will say this word to them,
‘(H)Let my eyes flow down with tears night and day,
And let them not cease,
For the virgin (I)daughter of my people has been shattered with a mighty shattering,
With a sorely (J)sick wound.
18 If I (K)go out to the field,
Behold, those [b]slain with the sword!
Or if I enter the city,
Behold, diseases of famine!
For (L)both prophet and priest
Have gone around as merchants in the land that they do not know.’”

Jeremiah 14:14-18
English Standard Version
14 And the Lord said to me: “The (A)prophets are prophesying lies in my name. (B)I did not send them, nor did I command them or speak to them. They are prophesying to you a lying vision, (C)worthless divination, and (D)the deceit of their own minds. 15 Therefore thus says the Lord concerning the prophets who prophesy in my name although (E)I did not send them, and who say, (F)‘Sword and famine shall not come upon this land’: (G)By sword and famine those prophets shall be consumed. 16 And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem, victims of famine and sword, (H)with none to bury them—them, their wives, their sons, and their daughters. For I will pour out their evil upon them.
17 “You shall say to them this word:
(I)‘Let my eyes run down with tears night and day,
and let them not cease,
for the virgin (J)daughter of my people is shattered with a great wound,
(K)with a very grievous blow.
18 (L)If I go out into the field,
behold, those pierced by the sword!
(M)And if I enter the city,
behold, the diseases of famine!
(N)For both prophet and priest ply their trade through the land
and have no knowledge.’”
