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!’”
Jeremiah 5:12-13
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
12 They have spoken falsely of the Lord
and have said, “He will do nothing.
No evil will come upon us,
and we shall not see sword or famine.”(A)
13 The prophets are nothing but wind,
for the word is not in them.
Thus shall it be done to them!(B)
