Jeremiah 27:12
NASB
Jere 27:12
&
I spoke words like all these to Zedekiah king of Judah, saying, "Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serve him and his people, and live!
Jere 27:13
&
~"Why will you die, you and your people, by the sword, famine and pestilence, as the LORD has spoken to that nation which will not serve the king of Babylon?
Jere 27:14
&
~"So do not listen to the words of the prophets who speak to you, saying, `You will not serve the king of Babylon,' for they prophesy a lie to you;
Jere 27:15
&
for I have not sent them," declares the LORD, "but they prophesy falsely in My name, in order that I may drive you out and that you may perish, you and the prophets who prophesy to you."
