- "For¹ thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª Behold,¹ I will makeª° thee a terrorª to thyself, and to all¹ thy friends:ª° and they shall fallª° by the swordª of their enemies,ª° and thine eyesª shall beholdª° [it]: and I will giveª° all¹ Judahª into the handª of the kingª of Babylon,ª and he shall carry them captiveª° into Babylon,ª and shall slayª° them with the sword.ª" {Jer 20:4} + "The prophetsª prophesyª° falsely,ª and the priestsª bear ruleª° by¹ their means;ª and my peopleª loveª° [to have it] so:¹ and what¹ will ye doª° in the endª thereof?" {Jer 5:31} + "For¹ from the leastª¹ of them even unto¹ the greatestª of them every one¹ [is] given²° to¹ covetousness;ª and from the prophetª¹ even unto¹ the priestª every one¹ dealethª° falsely.ª ... Were they ashamed²°¹ when¹ they had committedª° abomination?ª nay,ª they were not¹ at all²° ashamed,ª° neither²¹ couldª° they blush:ª° therefore¹ they shall fallª° among them that fall:ª° at the timeª [that] I visitª° them they shall be cast down,ª° saithª° the LORD.ª" {Jer 6:13-15} + "Therefore¹ will I giveª°¹ their wivesª unto others,ª [and] their fieldsª to them that shall inheritª° [them]: for¹ every one¹ from the leastª¹ even unto¹ the greatestª is given²° to covetousness,ª¹ from the prophetª¹ even unto¹ the priestª every one¹ dealethª° falsely.ª ... For they have healedª°¹ the hurtª of the daughterª of my peopleª slightly,ª° saying,ª° Peace,ª peace;ª when [there is] no¹ peace.ª" {Jer 8:10-11} + "Then the LORDª saidª° unto¹ me, The prophetsª prophesyª° liesª in my name:ª I sentª° them not,¹ neither¹ have I commandedª° them, neither¹ spakeª° unto¹ them: they¹ prophesyª° unto you a falseª visionª and divination,ª and a thing of nought,ª²° and the deceitª of their heart.ª ... Therefore¹ thus¹ saithª° the LORDª concerning¹ the prophetsª that prophesyª° in my name,ª and I¹ sentª° them not,¹ yet they¹ say,ª° Swordª and famineª shall not¹ be¹ in this¹ land;ª By swordª and famineª shall those¹ prophetsª be consumed.ª°" {Jer 14:14-15} + "I have seenª° also in the prophetsª of Jerusalemª an horrible thing:ª they commit adultery,ª° and walkª° in lies:ª they strengthenª° also the handsª of evildoers,ª° that noneª¹ doth returnª° from his wickedness:ª¹ they are¹ all¹ of them unto me as Sodom,ª and the inhabitantsª° thereof as Gomorrah.ª ... They say²° stillª° unto them that despiseª° me, The LORDª hath said,ª° Ye shall have¹ peace;ª and they sayª° unto every one¹ that walkethª° after the imaginationª of his own heart,ª No¹ evilª shall comeª° upon¹ you." {Jer 23:14-17} + "I have heardª°¹ what¹ the prophetsª said,ª° that prophesyª° liesª in my name,ª saying,ª° I have dreamed,ª° I have dreamed.ª° ... How long¹¹ shall [this] beª in the heartª of the prophetsª that prophesyª° lies?ª yea, [they are] prophetsª of the deceitª of their own heart;ª" {Jer 23:25-26} + "Behold,¹ I [am] against¹ them that prophesyª° falseª dreams,ª saithª° the LORD,ª and do tellª° them, and cause¹ my peopleª to errª° by their lies,ª and by their lightness;ª yet I¹ sentª° them not,¹ nor¹ commandedª° them: therefore they shall not¹ profit²° this people² at all,ª°¹¹ saithª° the LORD.ª" {Jer 23:32} + "The ancientª and honourable,ªª° heª [is] the head;ª and the prophetª that teachethª° lies,ª he¹ [is] the tail.ª" {Isa 9:15} + "Thy prophetsª have seenª° vainª and foolish thingsª for thee: and they have not¹ discoveredª°¹ thine iniquity,ª to turn awayª° thy captivity;ª° but have seenª° for thee falseª burdensª and causes of banishment.ª" {Lam 2:14} + "O Israel,ª thy prophetsª are¹ like the foxesª in the deserts.ª ... [To wit], the prophetsª of Israelª which prophesyª° concerning¹ Jerusalem,ª and which see²¹ visionsª of peaceª for her, and [there is] no¹ peace,ª saithª° the Lordª GOD.ª" {Ezk 13:4-16} + "Because¹ with liesª ye have made the heartª of the righteousª sad,ª° whom I¹ have not¹ made sad;ª° and strengthenedª° the handsª of the wicked,²¹ that he should not¹ returnª° from his wicked² way,ª¹¹ by promising him life:ª° ... Therefore¹ ye shall seeª° no¹ more¹ vanity,ª nor¹ divineª° divinations:ª for I will deliverª°¹ my peopleª out of your hand:ª¹ and ye shall knowª° that¹ I¹ [am] the LORD.ª" {Ezk 13:22-23} + "And her prophetsª have daubedª° them with untemperedª [morter], seeingª vanity,ª and diviningª° liesª unto them, saying,ª° Thus¹ saithª° the Lordª GOD,ª when the LORDª hath not¹ spoken.ª°" {Ezk 22:28} + "Ifª a manª walkingª° in the spiritª and falsehoodª do lie,ª° [saying], I will prophesyª° unto thee of wineª and of strong drink;ª he shall even be¹ the prophetª° of this¹ people.ª" {Mic 2:11} + "And it shall come to pass,¹ [that] when¹ anyª shall yet¹ prophesy,ª° then his fatherª and his motherª that begatª° him shall sayª° unto¹ him, Thou shalt not¹ live;ª° for¹ thou speakestª° liesª in the nameª of the LORD:ª and his fatherª and his motherª that begatª° him shall thrust²° him through¹ when he prophesieth.ª°" {Zch 13:3} + "Butª there wereª° false prophetsª alsoª amongª the¹ people,ª evenª asª there shall beª° false teachersª amongª you,ª whoª privily shall bring inª° damnableª heresies,ª evenª denyingª° the¹ Lordª that boughtª° them,ª and bring²° upon¹ themselvesª swiftª destruction.ª ... Andª throughª covetousnessª shall they with feignedª wordsª make merchandiseª° of you:ª whoseª judgmentª now of a long timeª lingerethª° not,ª andª theirª damnationª slumberethª° not.ª" {2Pe 2:1-3}
