Jeremiah 5:13

5:13 The prophets will prove to be full of wind.

The Lord has not spoken through them.

So, let what they say happen to them.’”


tn Heb “will be wind.”

tc Heb “the word is not in them.” The MT has a highly unusual form here, the Piel perfect with the definite article (הַדִּבֵּר, haddibber). It is undoubtedly best to read with the LXX (Greek version) and one Hebrew ms the article on the noun (הַדָּבָר, haddavar).
