Jeremiah 5:12-13
English Standard Version
12 They have spoken falsely of the Lord
and have said, ‘He will do nothing;
(A)no disaster will come upon us,
(B)nor shall we see sword or famine.
13 The prophets will become wind;
the word is not in them.
Thus shall it be done to them!’”
Jeremiah 5:12-13
New Living Translation
12 “They have lied about the Lord
and said, ‘He won’t bother us!
No disasters will come upon us.
There will be no war or famine.
13 God’s prophets are all windbags
who don’t really speak for him.
Let their predictions of disaster fall on themselves!’”
