Jeremiah

²¹I didn’t send these prophets, yet they ran.I didn’t speak to them, yet they prophesied. ²²But if they had stood in my council,then they would have caused my people to hear my words,and would have turned them from their evil way,and from the evil of their doings. ²³“Am I a God at hand,” says the Lord,“and not a God afar off? ²⁴Can anyone hide himself in secret placesso that I can’t see him?” says the Lord.“Don’t I fill heaven and earth?” says the Lord. ²⁵“I have heard what the prophets have said, who prophesy lies in my name, saying, ‘I had a dream! I had a dream!’ ²⁶How long will this be in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies, even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart? ²⁷They intend to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they each tell his neighbor, as their fathers forgot my name because of Baal.
