Jeremiah 23:19-22

23:19 But just watch! The wrath of the Lord

will come like a storm!

Like a raging storm it will rage down

on the heads of those who are wicked.

23:20 The anger of the Lord will not turn back

until he has fully carried out his intended purposes.

In days to come

you people will come to understand this clearly.

23:21 I did not send those prophets.

Yet they were in a hurry to give their message.

I did not tell them anything.

Yet they prophesied anyway.

23:22 But if they had stood in my inner circle,

they would have proclaimed my message to my people.

They would have caused my people to turn from their wicked ways

and stop doing the evil things they are doing.
