Jeremiah 23:15 in Context — Jeremiah 23
13 Nos profetas de Samaria vi coisas desagradáveis: profetizavam por Baal, e faziam errar a meu povo Israel.
14 Mas nos profetas de Jerusalém tenho vejo coisas horríveis: cometem adultérios, e andam com falsidade, e fortalecem as mãos dos malfeitores, para que ninguém se converta de sua maldade. Para mim, todos eles são como Sodoma, e seus moradores como Gomorra.
15 Por isso, assim diz o SENHOR dos exércitos sobre os profetas: Eis que eu lhes darei de comer absinto, e lhes farei beber águas envenenadas; porque dos profetas de Jerusalém a corrupção se espalhou sobre toda a terra.
16 Assim diz o SENHOR dos exércitos: Não deis ouvidos às palavras dos profetas que profetizam para vós; eles vos iludem; falam visão de seus próprios corações, e não da boca do SENHOR.
17 Dizem continuamente aos que me desprezam: O SENHOR diz: Tereis paz; E a qualquer um que segue a teimosia de seu [próprio] coração, dizem: Não virá mal algum sobre vós.
