Jeremiah 23:31 in Context — Jeremiah 23
29 Por acaso não é minha palavra como o fogo?diz o SENHOR, E como um martelo que esmigalha a pedra?
30 Portanto eis que eu sou contra os profetas,diz o SENHOR, que furtam minhas palavras cada um de seu próximo.
31 Eis que eu sou contra os profetas,diz o SENHOR, que usam suas línguas, e declaram: [Assim] ele disse.
32 Eis que eu sou contra os que profetizam sonhos mentirosos,diz o SENHOR, e os contam, e fazem meu povo errar com suas mentiras e com suas lisonjas. E eu não os enviei, nem lhes mandei; e proveito nenhum fizeram a este povo, diz o SENHOR.
33 E quando este povo, ou o profeta, ou o sacerdote, te peguntar, dizendo: Qual é a revelação, a carga do SENHOR? Então tu lhes dirás: Que carga? Eu os abandonarei, diz o SENHOR.
