23:22
But if°
they had stood°°

Behold,°
I [am] against°
them that prophesy°°
false°
dreams,°

And when°
this°
people,°

What°
burden?°
I will even forsake°°
you, saith°°
the LORD.° |

23:36
And the burden°
of the LORD°
shall ye mention°°
no°
more:°
for°
every man's°
word°

But if ye say, The burden of Jehovah; therefore thus saith Jehovah: Because ye say this word, The burden of Jehovah, and I have sent unto you, saying, Ye shall not say, The burden of Jehovah; |
|
23:38
But°
since°
ye say,°°
The burden°
of the LORD;°
therefore°
thus°
saith°°
the LORD;°
Because°
ye say°°°
this°
word,°
The burden°
of the LORD,°

unto°
you, saying,°°
Ye shall not°
say,°°
The burden°
of the LORD;° |
