Jeremiah 29:25

Maaseja Sefanja Jerusalem

²³ For they have committed an outrage in Israel by committing adultery with the wives of their neighbors and speaking lies in My name, which I did not command them to do. I am He who knows, and I am a witness, declares the LORD.”

²⁶ ‘The LORD has appointed you priest in place of Jehoiada, to be the chief officer in the house of the LORD, responsible for any madman who acts like a prophet—you must put him in stocks and neck irons.

²⁷ So now, why have you not rebuked Jeremiah of Anathoth, who poses as a prophet among you?
