The LORD’s word “The prophets prophesy lies in my name”

"선지자들이 내 이름으로 거짓 예언을 하도다" 하신 여호와의 말씀

Jeremiah 14:10–16: the LORD says to this people, “Even so they have loved to wander. They have not restrained their feet. Therefore the LORD does not accept them. Now he will remember their iniquity, and punish them for their sins.” The LORD says to the speaker (“I”), “Don’t pray for this people for their good. When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and meal offering, I will not accept them; but I will consume them by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence.” The speaker says, “Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, the prophets tell them, ‘You will not see the sword, neither will you have famine; but I will give you assured peace in this place.’” The LORD says to the speaker, “The prophets prophesy lies in my name. I didn’t send them. I didn’t command them. I didn’t speak to them. They prophesy to you a lying vision, divination, and a thing of nothing, and the deceit of their own heart. Therefore the LORD says concerning the prophets who prophesy in my name, but I didn’t send them, yet they say, ‘Sword and famine will not be in this land.’ Those prophets will be consumed by sword and famine. The people to whom they prophesy will be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword. They will have no one to bury them—them, their wives, their sons, or their daughters, for I will pour their wickedness on them.” No verse of 14:10–16 names the speaker (“I”). WEB does not close at 14:16 the quotation it opens at 14:14. The Korean Revised Version reads at 14:10 이 백성에 대하여 (concerning this people), where WEB reads “to this people”, and 나 여호와가 그들을 받지 아니하고 (I, the LORD, do not accept them), where WEB reads “the LORD does not accept them. Now he will remember”; at 14:13 it gives the prophets’ words as 여호와께서 이곳에서 너희에게 확실한 평강을 주시리라 (the LORD will give you assured peace in this place), where WEB reads “I will give you assured peace in this place”; and at 14:15 it reads 나 여호와가 이같이 이르노라 (I, the LORD, say thus), where WEB reads “Therefore the LORD says”.

  • JER 14:10–16, engwebp

    10The LORD says to this people: “Even so they have loved to wander. They have not restrained their feet. Therefore the LORD does not accept them. Now he will remember their iniquity, and punish them for their sins.”

    11The LORD said to me, “Don’t pray for this people for their good.

    12When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and meal offering, I will not accept them; but I will consume them by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence.”

    13Then I said, “Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, the prophets tell them, ‘You will not see the sword, neither will you have famine; but I will give you assured peace in this place.’”

    14Then the LORD said to me, “The prophets prophesy lies in my name. I didn’t send them. I didn’t command them. I didn’t speak to them. They prophesy to you a lying vision, divination, and a thing of nothing, and the deceit of their own heart.

    15Therefore the LORD says concerning the prophets who prophesy in my name, but I didn’t send them, yet they say, ‘Sword and famine will not be in this land.’ Those prophets will be consumed by sword and famine.

    16The people to whom they prophesy will be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword. They will have no one to bury them—them, their wives, their sons, or their daughters, for I will pour their wickedness on them.
