V.1 Woe 1945 be unto the pastors 7462-6 that destroy 6-18 and scatter 6327-56 the sheep 6629 of my pasture! 4830 saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068

23:2 Therefore thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 God 430 of Israel 3478 against the pastors 7462-6 that feed 7462-6 my people; 5971 Ye have scattered 6327-52 my flock, 6629 and driven them away, 5080-55 and have not visited 6485-1 them: behold, I will visit 6485-6 upon you the evil 7455 of your doings, 4611 saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068

23:3 And I will gather 6908-17 the remnant 7611 of my flock 6629 out of all countries 776 whither I have driven 5080-52 them, and will bring them again 7725-52 to their folds; 5116 and they shall be fruitful 6509-1 and increase. 7235-1

23:4 And I will set up 6965-52 shepherds 7462-6 over them which shall feed 7462-1 them: and they shall fear 3372-4 no more, nor be dismayed, 2865-11 neither shall they be lacking, 6485-11 saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068

23:5 Behold, the days 3117 come, 935-6 saith 5002-7 the LORD, 3068 that I will raise 6965-52 unto David 1732 a righteous 6662 Branch, 6780 and a King 4428 shall reign 4427-1 and prosper, 7919-52 and shall execute 6213-1 judgment 4941 and justice 6666 in the earth. 776

23:6 In his days 3117 Judah 3063 shall be saved, 3467-11 and Israel 3478 shall dwell 7931-4 safely: 983 and this [is] his name 8034 whereby he shall be called, 7121-4 THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. 3068|6664|3072

23:7 Therefore, behold, the days 3117 come, 935-6 saith 5002- 7 the LORD, 3068 that they shall no more say, 559-4 The LORD 3068 liveth, 2416 which brought up 5927-52 the children 1121 of Israel 3478 out of the land 776 of Egypt; 4714

23:8 But, The LORD 3068 liveth, 2416 which brought up 5927-52 and which led 935-52 the seed 2233 of the house 1004 of Israel 3478 out of the north 6828 country, 776 and from all countries 776 whither I had driven 5080-52 them; and they shall dwell 3427-1 in their own land. 127

23:9 Mine heart 3820 within 7130 me is broken 7665-8 because of the prophets; 5030 all my bones 6106 shake; 7363-1 I am like a drunken 7910 man, 376 and like a man 1397 whom wine 3196 hath overcome, 5674-1 because 6440 of the LORD, 3068 and because 6440 of the words 1697 of his holiness. 6944

23:10 For the land 776 is full 4390-1 of adulterers; 5003-18 for because 6440 of swearing 423 the land 776 mourneth; 56-1 the pleasant places 4999 of the wilderness 4057 are dried up, 3001-1 and their course 4794 is evil, 7451 and their force 1369 [is] not right.

23:11 For both prophet 5030 and priest 3548 are profane; 2610-1 yea, in my house 1004 have I found 4672-1 their wickedness, 7451 saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068

23:12 Wherefore their way 1870 shall be unto them as slippery 2519 [ways] in the darkness: 653 they shall be driven on, 1760-11 and fall 5307-1 therein: for I will bring 935-55 evil 7451 upon them, [even] the year 8141 of their visitation, 6486 saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068

23:13 And I have seen 7200-1 folly 8604 in the prophets 5030 of Samaria; 8111 they prophesied 5012-98 in Baal, 1168 and caused my people 5971 Israel 3478 to err. 8582-55

23:14 I have seen 7200-1 also in the prophets 5030 of Jerusalem 3389 an horrible thing: 8186 they commit adultery, 5003-2 and walk 1980-2 in lies: 8267 they strengthen 2388-14 also the hands 3027 of evildoers, 7489-56 that none 376 doth return 7725-1 from his wickedness: 7451 they are all of them unto me as Sodom, 5467 and the inhabitants 3427-6 thereof as Gomorrah. 6017

23:15 Therefore thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635 concerning the prophets; 5030 Behold, I will feed 398-56 them with wormwood, 3939 and make them drink 8248-52 the water 4325 of gall: 7219 for from the prophets 5030 of Jerusalem 3389 is profaneness 2613 gone forth 3318-1 into all the land. 776

23:16 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 of hosts, 6635 Hearken 8085-4 not unto the words 1697 of the prophets 5030 that prophesy 5012-12 unto you: they make you vain: 1891-56 they speak 1696-17 a vision 2377 of their own heart, 3820 [and] not out of the mouth 6310 of the LORD. 3068

23:17 They say 559-6 still 559-2 unto them that despise 5006- 18 me, The LORD 3068 hath said, 1696-14 Ye shall have peace; 7965 and they say 559-1 unto every one that walketh 1980-6 after the imagination 8307 of his own heart, 3820 No evil 7451 shall come 935-4 upon you.

23:18 For who hath stood 5975-1 in the counsel 5475 of the LORD, 3068 and hath perceived 7200-4 and heard 8085-4 his word? 1697 who hath marked 7181-52 his word, 1697 and heard 8085-4 [it]?

23:19 Behold, a whirlwind 5591 of the LORD 3068 is gone forth 3318-1 in fury, 2534 even a grievous 2342-114 whirlwind: 5591 it shall fall grievously 2342-4 upon the head 7218 of the wicked. 7563

23:20 The anger 639 of the LORD 3068 shall not return, 7725-4 until he have executed, 6213-2 and till he have performed 6965-53 the thoughts 4209 of his heart: 3820 in the latter 319 days 3117 ye shall consider 995-113 it perfectly. 998

23:21 I have not sent 7971-1 these prophets, 5030 yet they ran: 7323-1 I have not spoken 1696-14 to them, yet they prophesied. 5012-8

23:22 But if they had stood 5975-1 in my counsel, 5475 and had caused my people 5971 to hear 8085-55 my words, 1697 then they should have turned 7725-55 them from their evil 7451 way, 1870 and from the evil 7455 of their doings. 4611

23:23 [Am] I a God 430 at hand, 7138 saith 5002-7 the LORD, 3068 and not a God 430 afar off? 7350

23:24 Can any 376 hide 5641-11 himself in secret places 4565 that I shall not see 7200-4 him? saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068 Do not I fill 4392 heaven 8064 and earth? 776 saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068

23:25 I have heard 8085-1 what the prophets 5030 said, 559-1 that prophesy 5012-12 lies 8267 in my name, 8034 saying, 559- 2 I have dreamed, 2492-1 I have dreamed. 2492-1

23:26 How long shall [this] be 3426 in the heart 3820 of the prophets 5030 that prophesy 5012-12 lies? 8267 yea, [they are] prophets 5030 of the deceit 8649 of their own heart; 3820

23:27 Which think 2803-6 to cause my people 5971 to forget 7911-53 my name 8034 by their dreams 2472 which they tell 5608-17 every man 376 to his neighbour, 7453 as their fathers 1 have forgotten 7911-1 my name 8034 for Baal. 1168

23:28 The prophet 5030 that hath a dream, 2472 let him tell 5608-17 a dream; 2472 and he that hath my word, 1697 let him speak 1696-17 my word 1697 faithfully. 571 What [is] the chaff 8401 to the wheat? 1250 saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068

23:29 [Is] not my word 1697 like 3541 as a fire? 784 saith 5002-7 the LORD; 3068 and like a hammer 6360 [that] breaketh the rock 5553 in pieces? 6327-34

23:30 Therefore, behold, I [am] against the prophets, 5030 saith 5002-7 the LORD, 3068 that steal 1589-18 my words 1697 every one 376 from his neighbour. 7453

23:31 Behold, I [am] against the prophets, 5030 saith 5002-7 the LORD, 3068 that use 3947-6 their tongues, 3956 and say, 5001-4 He saith. 5002-7

23:32 Behold, I [am] against them that prophesy 5012-12 false 8267 dreams, 2472 saith 5002-7 the LORD, 3068 and do tell 5608-17 them, and cause my people 5971 to err 8582-55 by their lies, 8267 and by their lightness; 6350 yet I sent 7971-1 them not, nor commanded 6680-14 them: therefore they shall not profit 3276-55 this people 5971 at all, 3276-53 saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068

23:33 And when this people, 5971 or the prophet, 5030 or a priest, 3548 shall ask 7592-4 thee, saying, 559-2 What [is] the burden 4853 of the LORD? 3068 thou shalt then say 559-1 unto them, What burden? 4853 I will even forsake 5203-1 you, saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068

23:34 And [as for] the prophet, 5030 and the priest, 3548 and the people, 5971 that shall say, 559-4 The burden 4853 of the LORD, 3068 I will even punish 6485-1 that man 376 and his house. 1004

23:35 Thus shall ye say 559-4 every one 376 to his neighbour, 7453 and every one 376 to his brother, 251 What hath the LORD 3068 answered? 6030-1 and, What hath the LORD 3068 spoken? 1696-14

23:36 And the burden 4853 of the LORD 3068 shall ye mention 2142-4 no more: for every man's 376 word 1697 shall be his burden; 4853 for ye have perverted 2015-1 the words 1697 of the living 2416 God, 430 of the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635 our God. 430

23:37 Thus shalt thou say 559-4 to the prophet, 5030 What hath the LORD 3068 answered 6030-1 thee? and, What hath the LORD 3068 spoken? 1696-14

23:38 But since 518 ye say, 559-4 The burden 4853 of the LORD; 3068 therefore thus saith 559-1 the LORD; 3068 Because ye say 559-2 this word, 1697 The burden 4853 of the LORD, 3068 and I have sent 7971-4 unto you, saying, 559-2 Ye shall not say, 559-4 The burden 4853 of the LORD; 3068

23:39 Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly 5377-2 forget 5382-1 you, and I will forsake 5203-1 you, and the city 5892 that I gave 5414-1 you and your fathers, 1 [and cast you] out of my presence: 6440
