False Prophets Condemned

Concerning the prophets:

My heart is broken within me,(A)
and all my bones tremble.
I have become like a drunkard,
like a man overcome by wine,
because of the Lord,
because of his holy words.
10 For the land is full of adulterers;(B)
the land mourns(C) because of the curse,(D)
and the grazing lands in the wilderness have dried up.
Their way of life[a] has become evil,
and their power is not rightly used,
11 because both prophet and priest are ungodly;(E)
even in my house(F) I have found their evil.
This is the Lord’s declaration.
