Jeremiah 23:10-12

Common English Bible

¹⁰ Because the country teems
    with adulterers,
    because of them,^[a]
        yes, because their might isn’t right
        and their way is evil,
        the land dries up,
        and the grazing areas in the wilderness wither.^[b]
11 Both prophet and priest are godless;
    I even find their evil in my temple,
        declares the Lord.
¹² Therefore, they will find themselves on slippery ground
    and will be thrust into darkness,
    where they will collapse.
I will bring disaster upon them,
    when their time comes, declares the Lord.
