Jeremiah 23:36-38

New International Version

³⁶ But you must not mention ‘a message from the Lord’ again, because each one’s word becomes their own message. So you distort^(A) the words of the living God,^(B) the Lord Almighty, our God. ³⁷ This is what you keep saying to a prophet: ‘What is the Lord’s answer to you?’ or ‘What has the Lord spoken?’ ³⁸ Although you claim, ‘This is a message from the Lord,’ this is what the Lord says: You used the words, ‘This is a message from the Lord,’ even though I told you that you must not claim, ‘This is a message from the Lord.’
