Jeremiah 23:8-10

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁸Instead, their oaths will be, ‘The Lord brought the descendants of the nation of Israel out of the land of the north and all the lands where he ^[a] had scattered them. As the Lord lives….’ At that time they will live in their own land.

Warnings to the False Prophets

⁹“⌞Say this⌟ about the prophets:

I am deeply disturbed.
All my bones tremble.
I am like a drunk,
like a person who has had too much wine,
because of the Lord and his holy words.
¹⁰The land is filled with adulterers.
The land mourns because of the curse.
Pastures in the wilderness have dried up.
The people are evil,
and they use their strength to do the wrong things.
